love is...

patient.
kind.
humble.
not easily angered.
no scorekeeper.
self-sacrificing.
truth-seeking.

love never fails.

Lord, help me love this way.
not just when it's easy.
or fun.
or all dressed up in chocolate and sprinkles.

it's a step by step daily journey.

and i can't do it without You by our sides.

Happy Valentines Credits:
Stained glass heart cookies (we used whole wheat flour, which is why ours are darker)
Love letters from God
Heart Stamp (we used fabric/acrylic paint on old long sleeved tees)
"Have a Sippity Doo Da V-Day!" straws & cards ($3 total for 12 of each at Michael's)
"Post Office" mail boxes (Target Dollar Spot... we nailed the removable backs to a random piece of wood from the garage after painting it with leftover chalkboard spray paint) :)
