Things I love about my husband

To keep in theme with yesterday's post, I wanted to honor my husband today... on Valentine's Day. Love you babe!

~I love the way he laughs when he really gets tickled at something.

~I love the way he's good at most every sport he plays... regardless of the fact that I don't even like sports or care to watch them.

~I love his sweet kisses on my neck.

~I love the way he cleans the house when he gets in the mood... nooks & cranny's and even sometimes moves furniture.

~I love that he has a calming factor when I get upset & stressed about some things.

~I love that he has made me come out of my comfort zone & tried some new things since we've been married.

~I love how he looks at a golf score card for weeks & can remember every stroke on every hole for him & whoever else he played with.

~ I love going through the Love Dare with him & seeing what new things God is teaching us about our relationship.

Things I love about my kids

I'm stealing this post idea from my friend Holly because I think it's a great idea & it's all about love.... Happy Valentine's Day.

Things I love about Chandler...


-his fascination with firemen/firetrucks... (and police officers & EMT's). He likes to dress up a lot, but this is probably his fave. He really thinks he is a fireman sometimes & can talk a pretty good game with you on it.
-his gentle & loving nature. He is so tender & nurturing and very patient. He gets that from his Daddy. He most always thinks of others and what he can do for them.
-his blue eyes... they will make a girl melt one day.
-His creativity... to write a story, draw a picture, make something out of a box... anything. He's constantly churning over what he can "make" next. He gets that from me... :-)
-his "loveyness"... sometimes he'll curl up beside you & kind of makes you think he's a cat the way he will rub up beside of you.

Things I love about Carter...

-his ability to make up some far fetched stories & people (adults) really believe them
-his perseverance to do something. If he wants to do it, he WILL do it.
-his red hair. i love it! if i got money every time someone made a comment about it... i would be a rich woman!
-his ability to play sports... just about anything.... and be good at it. He gets that from his Daddy.
-the way he comes to me when he knows he's done something wrong and it's made me upset.

Things I love about Kensley....

~she's a girl and loves girly things like purses, baby dolls, hair bows, etc.
~Her personality is probably the cutest thing ever. She loves life and is always full of funny facial expressions & cute little words.
~The way she wants me to kiss boo-boo's and she really thinks it makes it better.
~The way she gets excited to see her brothers and her Daddy when they get home in the afternoon/evenings.
~the way she dances ANYTIME she hears music. It's likes it turns something on inside of her and she just has to let it out.

How Lovely

Since it's Valentine's week (as one of my friends kids declared it) I thought about posting some "lovely" things that have happened this week.
~The weather has been very lovely. Getting a taste of spring has made me ready to put up my sweats & long sleeves. However, I'm also hoping that with this taste of spring, it will bring one good snow to us since we have "6 more weeks of winter" according to mr. groundhog.
~Participating in The Love Dare over the past few weeks has been lovely and made me more accountable to my thoughts and actions.
~Having my 3 little munchkins in my life is lovely. They are the loves of my life & I am so thankful that God entrusted them to our care.
~Corby has been taking a day off during the week & it's been lovely. Something about having him around during the day is great.
~My friend letting me borrow her Cricut machine has been lovely (thanks Meagan). I'm having way more fun than I should with it :-)

Yeah, it's kind of cheesy, but what a better way to appreciate the little things in life.
