Missin' My Valentine.

Valentine's Day is not the same

with my special Valentine in Heaven.

However, our family loves holidays and

Valentine's Day is no exception.

 A great Valentine's Day begins with

strawberries and . . . 

 whipped cream!

 Our boys do so love our homemade donuts

and donut holes . . . 

 . . . yummy homemade heart-shaped 

cinnamon rolls . . . 

Yep, we are going to go have our

diabetes levels checked. Just wait

for lunch.

Thinking of the past 36 years that I

have had special Valentine dates, given

and received special Valentine gifts,

and all of the cards and memories made

today pretty.darn difficult.  However,

I am thankful for our many, many, many

blessings and am so very grateful for

my sweet boys and their devotion to

me as well as my wonderful family and

friends . . . 

"Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not

envy, it does not boast, it is not proud,

it does not dishonor others, it is not 

self-seeking . . ." 1 Corinthians 13
