Yup it's Valentines day :)
Today I'm thankful for Papa. This morning after our family devotions we muddled through the years to figure out how long we've been married (13 years, 14 in Sept) how old I am, (You wish :P) and how long we've been together as a couple. 16 years, 17 this August 12th.
Yesterday Papa surprised me, after leaving here in the morning for work, and showed up 45 minutes later with a vase of red roses, and 3 boxes of chocolate.. one box of my very favorites!! And two boxes to share with the kids ;) I did share by the way!! They've all had several, much reading of box tops and thinking and asking questions about this sort or that big one or (in E's case) which ones don't have nuts. I'm sorry to say I can't put pictures up just yet as I have none.. the camera is still gone and I've got to have nice light to take good pictures with the ipad.. I will get some yet though.
I put the roses in my room on the dresser. I like to see them there. The table is much too busy of a place to hold flowers :)
ANYWAY!! Back to thankful Thursdays!! I'm thankful for Papa because he is an amazing man of God, father, husband, teacher, worker, cook, provider and so much more!! I actually wrote out a mushy sort of list and decided that it was our business :) not yours.
Suffice it to say I LOVE MY MAN!!! Thank you for all you do :)
I hope you have someone who loves you like I love him and he loves me. He is my other half and I'm his. Together we are complete. One.
And if you don't I hope you find him/her who is your other half :)
The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing. But in our culture we apply for a curse and reject blessings. Something is wrong with this picture.
