Well, it is the Valentine's season. . .heck, my house has been decorated for the LOVE holiday since the Christmas tree came down. Tomorrow I have three Valentine's parties at the elementary school and today is Valentine's baking day (last night was Valentine making night). So, I'm kind of in the red and pink mood. So, I wanted to tell you all what I love about each person in my family.
Andy. . .he is my very best friend, he knows all of my yucky and still loves me. He makes me laugh and he thinks I'm funny. He works so hard and so diligently and he is always trying to learn new things. He wants to be a better person and better dad and better husband and I can really tell when he is trying. He is steady and patient (except with "dumb" drivers). What I see is what I get with Andy and I don't have to guess.
Hays. . .he is sweet and thoughtful and compassionate. His mind is so intricate. He loves to figure things out in the most "engineer" type of way, but he is so creative and artistic and I am constantly amazed by the fact that both sides of his brain are always so engaged. He is a good friend, even to strangers and the "friendless" and he is a great big brother.
Maggie. . .she is so unique. It is so funny that I have such strong feelings and emotions for her but I have the hardest time describing her. There is no one else in this world like her! She is funny and dingy and serious and considerate. She is comforting and compassionate. She is independent and outgoing. She is nurturing and maternal and selfless. I think the best part is how dear she has become to me in the last year. I love being her friend.
Tiki. . .he is the happiest person I have ever met. He finds the good in everything. He is friends with everyone. He is sweet and outgoing and joyful. He is smart and his laugh is the best laugh in the world. He is trusting and has freely given me his heart when he really has no reason to trust anyone with that due to the fact that no one has been a consistent figure in his life.
Dax. . .he is my little love. He is snugly and funny and loving. He works me over all the time and he knows just how to do it. His big dimples are pretty much my undoing and he using them to his advantage. He is hysterical! He is sweet and vulnerable one minute and then big and tough another. He is aware of others and he pays attention to what is going on around him. He loves his mom!
Gabby. . .she is a hoot. She is strong and self-assured and sweet and funny and loving and hard headed and loves to help. She is amazingly aware of how other people give and receive love and she is so capable of giving her love to people in their receiving way and receiving love from others in the way that they give it. That shocks me the most about her because she is so young, but already has that HUGE thing figured out. She is my baby but she is so independent that she keeps me on my toes!
So there you have it. Some of the love in my heart for my husband and kids. I am so blessed in so many ways and I am so thankful that these six people are in my life (and in my home). They all make me a better person and have turned my world upside down!
I love you, Andy, my love!
I love you, Hays, my first love at first sight!
I love you, Maggie, the one who flipped me upside down and inside out!
I love you, Tiki, the one who trusts without reason!
I love you, Dax, my little dimple-headed sweat muffin!
I love you, Gabby, my independent whirlwind!
