I am a big fan of days on the calendar that give us opportunities to express love. It may be a card with perfect words, a thoughtful gift, an encouraging text or phone call, we all can take advantage of this day and do something. Who do we know that needs to know or be reminded they are loved?

For us, we will make heart shaped pizzas and eat dessert. We girls were given flowers and the boys their favorite candy. Words of love were penned and waiting by my coffee this morning. I treasure words because they come from what is in our heart. I know the cost of him getting up daily to feast on God’s Word, reasons for prayers that pour out like an ongoing conversation and faithful obedience. He loves our family out of the love that has been first given to him. What more could we ask for?

Happy Valentines’s Day, Damon.

I love you
