Valentine's Day . . . Children Dancing in the Kitchen

All three little ones enjoyed some homemade yogurt with honey after the girls' nap yesterday. They've had colds and, because of their congestion, I had been denying their requests for yogurt for a while. Zeke and Charis were so happy when I said, "How 'bout some yogurt with honey, guys??" :-)

Eden and her adorable five teeth! 

We almost always have music on around here. So getting down from their snack Zeke and Charis danced together. The photos are blurry but I kind of like them . . . showing the blurred motion of their happiness. 

My husband spoiled me beyond belief yesterday. Wednesday night we had dinner out . . . we have grown to love Gustav's fondue. I'm determined to find a similar recipe so that we can use it to celebrate at home too.

He came home with roses at lunch time the next day. Nothing quite like the sun coming out and pretty flowers on the table inside . . .

That night I came out of the shower to find dark chocolate and new earrings. At that point I was going, "Luke! Really? It's too much." He must be the sweetest man. I am reminded daily that the Lord gave me way way more than I deserve when it comes to my life-long best friend and the father of my children.

No, not everyday is it peaches and cream (or chocolate, flowers and earrings. ;-)) He's not perfect. I'm imperfect, for sure.

I am grateful for God's Word. For forgiveness, wisdom and grace.

Without the Lord I would be lost and have no true understanding of love.
