what she does at night...

There are so many nights after we tuck the kids in that Sunshine gets out of bed and draws.  I had to take pictures of these because they touched my heart.  I hope they do the same to you.

ten years...

Dad and I are taking a parenting class at church during Sunday School time.  The first Sunday we had the class, we had to write down in a notebook things that we are grateful for, admire or appreciate about each other.  We took this assignment to heart.  Sometimes we go through life only with negative thoughts about people, this exercise makes you do the opposite.  We both filled up pages of things in our notebooks.  Our teachers were impressed. 

Well, Dad took it a step further.  Every day for a month he displayed in one way or another those qualities that he likes about me.  I'm sharing with you some of the ones I snapped pictures of and I'll keep the more private ones to myself, as they were meant for me only!

These little loves notes wrapped up on our 10th wedding anniversary.  Those last 10 years flew by so fast!  I am so glad that I said yes to marrying my best friend and love of my life.  Sweetheart, you are so wonderful and I LOVE YOU!!!  (I'll keep the mushiness to a minimum on this, just so you won't get embarrassed.  You're welcome.)
