A life full of love

 I am blessed to have a life full of love. My heart is full and happy and beating quite regularly lately thanks to a few medications. :) My hubby and I have been married for nearly 11 years. We have struggled through some hard times like everyone does in life, but we have struggled together. Wherever life takes us, we go together and that makes a happy life. He is my best friend. He helps me in everything. He does lots of dishes, many loads of laundry, and even cleans toilets sometimes. He cooks dinner alot. He is a great cook. He also works for a living. :) I am so thankful to have him in my life. I know someday my kiddos will leave me, and it will be him and me. I am thankful for our temple marriage and the opportunity that we have to be together forever.  I am so looking forward to our Valentine's celebration date on Friday. 

I also have four little hearts that are linked to mine. They are amazing and wonderful and I am so thankful for their unconditional love. There are many things we struggle with in this life. But, one thing we excel at is love. We express our love and show our love for one another daily. They  make my heart swell. 

So on this holiday of love I am so grateful for my life full of love. 

Some plans the kiddos and I have today include making valentine decorations and a tablescape. Making chocolate chip cookies in heart shapes, sugar cookies in heart shapes, mini muffins with valentine cup holders, heart shaped peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and or grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch, and heart shaped pancakes for dinner.  I love the holiday of love. 

Speaking of hearts, my heart just about broke when I dropped Savannah off at school this morning. I miss her so much while she is at school during the day and I worry about her and feel especially sad that she is there without a sibling. She had her arms full this morning with all of her valentines and things she was carrying in to class. She dropped something as she was walking and had to turn around and go back for it. Such a little thing but it made my heart break. I hope she chooses to come homeschool with me soon. My other kiddos are doing great and we are so happy to be learning together.
