Valentine's Day this year has been the best!! It started off with an early morning visit to the Dentist for Caleb. I was dreading this appointment since it was made. However, Caleb was unbelievable! He sat in the chair with his hand resting on his head as if he were in a LazyBoy! He opened his mouth and stayed completely still...I kept pinching myself! He had the whole office cracking up with his 'animal knowledge!' Then it was off to Howard Haven Nursing Home. We had made valentines and went to deliver them to the residents there. I had been praying for ways to teach the boys compassion and we came up with this idea. Again, I was apprehensive about how the boys might respond to the residents but THEY LOVED IT. They bravely entered each room, distributed their valentines and treats and then shouted "Happy Valentine's Day!" Then it was off to lunch and the Dollar Store for a special V-Day treat! The evening ended with a family candlelight meal of Spaghetti followed by dancing to Frank Sinatra in the Living Room. So overwhelmed with love for this family the Lord has given me! :)
Micah's Dream Day at the Fire Station!
We made a Fire Truck...here it is parked in the garage!
