... L.O.V.E. ...

 This technically would fall under the "REWIND" category... but fits so perfectly for today:

** Valentine's Day ** 

A day when I can stop & just ADORE the two guys the Lord has BLESSED my life with SO MUCH!

 

A simple day in our old city, brings back sweet memories of precious time I got to spend with them BOTH!!!

Craig suggested we have a "coffee date" during Levi's "nap time".

So off we went to the Cafe Coffee Day where we ordered some yummy cappuccinos:

(I really do LOVE this man with ALL my heart!  

I couldn't ask for a better leader for our family or best friend.

He adores our little boy and is an incredible Papa, he can make me laugh harder than anyone I know, he knows how to work hard but also how to take a break and HAVE FUN, he is a gifted teacher and invests deeply in the guys he is around here.

I don't tell him this enough, but it's ALL true- 

You are a GIFT to my life, Craig, and I know you are to MANY others as well.  

Thanks for asking me to be your wife~ Happy Valentine's Day, Love

Back to our Coffee Date....

While we sipped on our yummy drinks, Levi sipped on his juice so he didn't feel left out:

 AAAAANNNDDD...

It turned out that "nap time' translated better to "play with cars/ watch a movie on the ipad " time instead :)

eh- sometimes you gotta have those kind of days too!

What a LOVELY time we all had:

chatting together, sipping on our drinks, playing/watching movies, crocheting, reading a book

It was a WONDERFUL date in my eyes.

And to my other Love... Levi Elliot,

you have brought nothing but JOY to this heart of mine since you were born.

I have LOVED deeper than I ever thought I could since you came around.

You teach me so many things with each day~ I know one of my jobs is to disciple you... 

but buddy, we are BOTH learning SO much along the way.

What a gift you are, my precious boy.

Thank you for the privilege of being your Mama.

I pray you know just how GREATLY you are LOVED today!

By me, your Papa, our God, and SOOO many others.

And our beautiful baby girl,

We can't wait to start this journey with you in just a few short weeks.

We love you already, but we KNOW that our love will only intensify the moment we lay eyes on you.

What incredible LOVE we will bring to our family.

See you soon!

 

Happy Valentine's Day Y'all!

May you know the GREATEST Love of all... the Love of the one who created both you and I.

This truly is the greatest gift I have ever received!
