Love is in the air

Valentines day is a chance for us to show love for people and how much we care about them. I(Tina) have really been thinking about this and how it can apply to so many different people, and the differnt ways it is shown!



For example, when Isaac goes to school tommorrow he will hand out peices of paper to everyone in his class telling them how great they are. Why? Because he loves them? No. It is a chance for the kids to say that they appreciate each other. Isaac is very careful, he picks certain cards for certain people because of their personality and friendship. It is his way of saying "Hey, I think you are special"

Tonight was when we celebrated our Valentines day as a family. About a week ago, Tim announced that we would be having a dress up dinner and we were to be ready at supper time. He picked out food that he and I like and he also picked out the kids favorites. Not only did he cook and clean up, but he served us all and then as we sat down, we all noticed a note from him to each of us individually telling us how much we meant to him. This made Valentines day more of a chance for us as a family to be able to talk about how we love each other.

So what is the point? This day of love can mean so many things to people. If it is a chance to tell your significant other that you are head over heels in love with them.......whoo hoo! Have a good time! Or if you are just thinking about friends or family and what they mean to you....Don't let this chance slip by. Happy Valentines Day

1 John 4:7-8 "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."
