Happy Valentines Day!

It's not technically until tomorrow, but I wanted to say Happy Valentines Day to everyone out there....but especially to my own very special valentine, my husband!

I love you, Joshua! Thank you for being the best valentine a girl could ask for! Thank you for everything that you do to make my life so wonderful...thank you for taking such great care of me...and thank you most of all for our beautiful babies!

Valentines Day has got me thinking about LOVE...what else! At first I thought about how much I love my husband. Then I got to thinking about how much I love my kids. Which reminded me that I am now a parent...and that thought led me to thinking about my own parents and how much I love them. Thinking about parents made me think about my Heavenly Father and how much I love Him, but more importantly how much He loves me (and everyone else for that matter). How fortunate we all are, on this Valentines Day, to have the ultimate valentine...our Savior. He loves us more than we could ever fathom, no matter what we do, what we say or how unlovable we can be. It gives Valentines Day so much more meaning than just some holiday that greeting card companies invented.

So, I hope that you and yours enjoy a day filled with the perfect love of the Father and hopefully some good candy and flowers too!

"How great is the love that the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!" 1 John 3:1
