2014 Valentine's Day

We have a busy day tomorrow so we decided to celebrate Valentine's Day with Arie this morning. Last year I bought a little blue "mail box" at Target with the idea that we would put his Valentine's gift in it each year; this year I found an adorable little chocolate bear lollipop for him but when I went to slip it in the mailbox last night it didn't fit! Ha! So in a moment of inspiration I thought John and I could write love notes for Arie's mailbox and lay out his treats beside the box. Here's a video of how it went:



I think Arie's brain was just going: CHOCOLATE!!! that entire time. We'll have to tell him that we love him later. ;-)

And some pictures of our little Valentine:

John and I were able to celebrate the occasion just the two of us last Friday when we got a babysitter and went out for the evening. It was our 9th Valentine's Day together and our 6th as a married couple. I love that man more every year!

Tonight we are looking forward to having some friends over for spaghetti and raspberry brownies that Arie and I baked together this morning.

Happy Valentine's Day my dear readers! Wishing you a day of blessing as you show love to friends and family and reflect upon the divine love that unites us all.

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