Happy Valentines Day!
Life doesn't get much sweeter than spending time with the ones you love. Yesterday was Sean's birthday. My sister, her husband, and three children joined us for dinner and cupcakes. Nan and Pops came too, of course!
I had the honor of cuddling with precious Weston (11 days old!). He is every bit of sweetness, imaginable! What a blessing to have another healthy nephew in my life. Even more of a blessing: the fact that I get to love him without limits, and send him home to be cared for (read: middle of the night feedings!) by my sis!
Today was a day of recuperation for all of us. After having spent two days with 8 boys, and dinner guests, I was in need of some down time. The fact that it's Valentines Day, kind of escaped my mind. Not habitual on my part, as I'm usually pretty on-the-ball with holidays, and special events.
My boys, however, remembered! They returned home from church bearing gifts. Each had chosen a bunch of their favorite flowers for me. How sweet! I enjoyed every moment of arranging them.
Tonight, as I sit here writing this new post, I've been given a chance to reflect. Time to think about all of the blessings in my life that bring me love. My husband, children, sister, brother, in-laws, extended family, and friends; a wealth of love.
Thank you, Lord, for filling my life with love and joy. I am so very grateful. A Happy Valentines Day, indeed.
