Love Week- Day One
Our home is decked out in red and pink. There are hearts, cupids, and banners that exclaim love and my desire to possess everyone in the house. Be Mine! (I'm sort of selfish that way.) My kids get very excited for Love Week. Mostly, it's the candy. But, hopefully, they're also excited for the love notes they get each day. Hopefully, they'll tuck these little treasures in their drawers and when they see them in May or August, they'll be reassured that they are indeed loved. I try to express love for my family every day. We say "I love you" a lot. I cook them dinners and wash their laundry--little acts of kindness that say I care. But, I think we all need a little something extra every now and then. And, in this day of technology and email and facebook, a hand-written note is rare. Maybe they won't appreciate it until years later, but I cling to the hope that someday they will. As part of Love Week, I'll tell you some things that I love...
Feel better soon, Jewels!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteFeel better!
ReplyDeleteHope it passes quickly.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure I live just down the freeway from you. The weather does absolutely nothing to help a lousy feeling, huh? Give us snow! Give us sun! But this rain stuff? We get it so infrequently it's like, "Oh no. What do I do with this?" and when the kids want to go out in it it's like, "Um. I'm not sure? I don't really know how to dress you for that..."
ReplyDeleteAnd I hope you're feeling better today, though the weather is pretty much doing the same thing.
