What can I say? We love LOVE around here...and Valentine's Day is the perfect time to celebrate!
"We love because he first loved us."
1 John 4:19
I have to admit, by the time I even sense February drawing near, my heart swells with excitement to usher in the LOVE month. Heart shaped plates, candy and extra hugs...Valentine's Day is one of my favorite days of the whole year!
"So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
1 Corinthians 13:13
There is nothing greater than God's amazing LOVE! And, though we celebrate that daily year-round,
there really is just something extremely sweet about February...and Valentine's Day in particular.

Our day started out especially exciting this year when Brodie surprised the kids
by coming home with the kitten we had decided not to adopt the day before.
[We did, however, end up with a parakeet! But that's an entirely different story...]
I think we were just as happy as the kids were to give them this special Valentine's Day surprise.

"Happy" doesn't quite cover it...
Giddy? Enamored? Lifelong dream come true?
It makes me think of how my Father God blesses me...and how much joy it must bring Him to lavish His kids with His love.
"If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children,
how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!"
Matthew 7:11

It's been a day filled with LOVE, pink {heart} pancakes (our favorite Valentine's Day tradition),
LOVE, pink milk, LOVE, surprises, and more LOVE after that!
May our hearts most importantly focus on our love for Christ
and how that pours out into everything else that God may be glorified most of all!

"Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way;
it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things,
believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends."
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
