So some days are the days you relax and clean up for nothing and just have a quiet day. I have been waiting for quiet days for along time and now that they are here I am really glad it is in short spurts. But none-the-less I will enjoy the few minutes.
I was also thinking about Valentines day and the things that go on that day. You can feel the love in the air and it is a little exciting to know many of the couples out there say I Love you just a few more times. They hug longer or they make a special dinner. When you have kids you have the same feelings except they are x'5 for me. So its a good day. I guess its the mind set you have for the day. Mine is planned. 4-H in the morning with the kids and then Game Night in the evening with the husband and friends. Then to my sweet surprise last week Sean brought me a beautiful multi-frame frame. Its really nice and a stretch for him to come up with something he knew I would love. And today a beautiful miniture rose planter showed up at the front door. SWEET. To add to the love pile there is the Dr. Pepper he bought for me. Yes-my true love knows me best.
So-lets dedicate this part of the letter to the one who makes me feel like I am the only one in a room full of women, the one that offers foot rubs for no reason. Maybe I would mention in the letter about how fast he fixes my computer when I know there are six sitting on his desk, the laundry that he does when there is no end to it or the starting of my car in the morning so I dont have to get in a cold car. Sometimes, when I am already tired of the day he dries the dishes and puts them away or starts a very hot bath for me to melt away the day. I would love for everyone to see him in the morning when he calls all the kids in for morning prayer so all I have to do is slip out of bed onto the floor with out even opening my eyes. The quiet way he mumbles through helping me hang or move things in the house. I know that is purely out of love. The drooling that takes place when I make anything eatable or the happy attitude he pull out of somewhere deep when he went to bed at 4 am after playing Call of Duty 5. Thats love. See many women expect something great for Valentines day-I get something great for everyday.
