to bring you . . . . .
SUNLIGHT!
the sun is shining today! this is the first day in many weeks that the sun has shone longer than 2 or 3 hours. i am loving it! maddie and isaac think it feels like summer . . . and it is nice and warm in our big window by our table. they will be bundling up when we head outside to go sledding in a few minutes, though! the sun may be shining, but the temperature is just 10 degrees F. oh, the sun does wonders for me, though. i am more productive, more kind, more at ease. i am loving this sunlight!
the rose is maddie's valentine from her daddy. :)
we had a long, oh-so-full weekend. all fun stuff, but too full. ben and i did get to spend about an hour and a half on a little valentine date, and that was really nice. the kids and i also made some fun valentines for our friends and family, and we made chocolate cupcakes with strawberry cream cheese frosting and heart sprinkles. mmmmm. my memory card was lost all weekend (in the couch cushions), so i had to make memories in my mind and my journal.
tomorrow i will be back with another collection. i don't know that i will hit 28 collections this month, but i have some more ready to show you . . . i'll hit 20 for sure!
i hope the sun is shining on you today, friends. either from the sky or from the love of those around you! i've got both right now. :) i'm feeling very blessed.
