We have just celebrated another holiday. What can I say but the kids get so excited over little things. This weekend went back entirely to fast. My husband and I were able to enjoy a night out for the first time in months. We went to Love for Life, we listened to the speakers and than we were able to enjoy Diamond Rio.... And don't you know that the kids as they get older expect to get what they did last year or at least something equal to what the got last year.
Tori my oldest, didn't really ask for anything, but I had already gotten her gift.. I've had it for months. I love buying items on sale and using them when the time is right, Of course the boys decided that they wanted transformers. So the boys Johnathan and Timothy love that. What I truly love about valentine is that Christ Love is beyond what our infinite minds can truly understand or even know. To know that God gave his son for our sins is just mind blowing. I know that when you are a parent your children are very special and to know that you would give your child up for Crucifixion truly represents love. If you are feeling unloved or even lonely remember Christ loved us enough to walk His cross up to the hill and be crucified on it for all. Valentine's most people may not relate to Christ love, but I do.. I hope my children realize that love is not about buying gifts but about Christ and his love....
