Remember February 14th? I hardly do. I’m so glad I took pictures. For Valentine’s Day it is our tradition to talk about Love. God’s love for us and of our love for one another. We also have a fancy supper for the babies then Phil and I have some steaks after they’re in bed.

And washes dishes. He’s romantic like that.

He is a gift to me and to our babies. A good husband and father. And he even brings me chocolate and wine and perfume. I am blessed.
