As I sit here at the end of Valentine’s Day, I’m reflecting on the day. 

We did a little something special for the kids this morning with fancy Valentine’s Day donuts.  They also received a few little gifts.

It’s not really a holiday we celebrate as a couple.   

We didn’t plan anything.  It’s been a typical night of relaxing after the little ones are in bed.  We had a nice dinner and dessert.  We’re now watching our favorite (current favorite) television show. 

It may not sound special or fancy to some.

To me though, it’s perfect.  I’m so happy to be right here.  I’m happy about the right now. 

It may not be diamonds, fancy dinners, or even a beautiful card. 

It was, however, a gorgeous, single rose and my favorite frozen coffee. 

An unexpected gift.

An unplanned wonderful yet somewhat mediocre evening and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 

The love of my beloved is all I need.

    So sweet! Sounds very much like our valentines day. Except we’re trying to watch a TVGM show on the Internet (we recently cancelled our satellite to save $$) and it keeps kicking the computer offline.

    Those little things our husbands do to surprise us, even small, mean so much, when we know they are thinking of us! How blessed we are! Thank you for sharing your story!

    Beautifully said. Those special moments that seem small in nature, but large enough to remind us of how we are blessed in a large way.
    In His unending love,
