My heart is full, overflowing,
basking in moments,
tender pockets of time,
strung together throughout
the quiet, simple days of my life.
When three small boys
snuggle in close
cheeks resting on shoulders
of one next to them.
Anticipating, imagination kindled with
words I read from classic books.
Entreating voices,
"Just one more chapter!"
When I snuggle in close
and my cheek rests
on muscled shoulder
after long day apart
And when his fingers
gentle, but strong,
travel up and down my back
during slow hug hello
I close my eyes, smile,
breath deep heart swells
And I am in love
with this life, these children,
this husband, His Grace

May your February 14th be filled to overflowing with love that continues all year. Enjoy your Valentines!
Instructions for the Valentine Heart Garland
How did you do your hearts? I really want to know! I can't wait until my son will sit so close to me and let me read to him. He can do a little "board" book...so we are on our way for a good reader in my hands.
