How Was Your Valentines?

imageAs I said before, I love Valentines.  It makes me think of  everything I love, not just my Sweetheart—-who I love a whole bunch.

Chris really out did himself this year making me feel loved.  We have as a couple been so stressed out.  His job was on the block this year , but God provided him with a new – even better job.  That required him to be out of town for two weeks — in Chicago during the vortex.  But my sweet took the time to shop for beautiful yarn for me to crochet and knit with just because he knows it makes me happy.

This week has been so busy.   The girls were sick the first part of the week.  I had Garden Club.   Aidan had baseball every afternoon and Thursday night we had a family night at school, so we didn’t get home until late, but I still had 75 sugar cookies to finish because my three youngest children give those out with their Valentines at school.   Chris always stays up with me when I have project like that going on…..to keep me company.    The cookies came out cute, but I forgot to take pictures.  I have a picture of one of the Ok looking ones in my Recipe Box along with my Sugar Cookie Recipe.  The really cute ones looked very 1920′s Flapper Girl/Mustache Man.

After being up most of the night with me on the cookie quest, Chris got up early and me Breakfast in bed.   He gave three white roses for my bathroom,  a dozen red roses for our bed room, and a box of Dark Chocolates (my favorite ).  Chris is a very gifted writer Unlike me, and he wrote my a beautiful poem in the card he gave too.

And on top of everything else, he brought supper home from one of our favorite restaurants so we would not have to cook.   No going out,  you ask?   Well I spent all day driving 2.5 hrs. one way to New Orleans to take our oldest child to see his Dr.  and the closet restaurant to our house that is worth the trouble is an hour away.  Bringing the restaurant home was so much more romantic to me.
