{Love}

It's amazing how much love surrounds us if we just focus on it. While there may be a lot of heartbreak, hard times, trials, and sadness, our lives are filled with LOVE. Mostly our Heavenly Father pours His loves on us each and every day and I feel it in the smallest of ways. Our Savior is our very example of what and how to love. His is the purest, sweetest love of all. We have the greatest family who helps each other, supports each others, wants to be involved in each others lives, and prays for each other. Our friends help lift us and bring joy, fun, and laughter into life. My kids test me everyday and I am frustrated so often but I look at them and feel their spirit so strong and my heart overflows with love for them. I know I am blessed with love all around me. I'm glad we have moments that we can stop and reflect and truly see that beautiful love.

We had a fancy dinner and dance on Valentine's day. We decorated, put makeup on, put nice clothes on, ate a nice candlelit dinner, danced the night away, had chocolate fondue, danced some more...then tuckered out. It was really special time together.
