Well, this worship leader hacked a little but not bad. And the preacher? He didn't bark a bit. Call it the anointing or whatever you want, but that man led a song and preached a message and didn't let out a bit of a growl. It wasn't til we got home that I heard any barking. Lucky him.
Things are definitely looking up though, I napped again yesterday for the seventh day straight. And I AM NOT a napper. I will be glad when I am back to my zippy self. Or snippy self or whatever.
So let's turn our attention to the looming holiday....Valentine's Day! We have a running tradition (one of our very few traditions) to have a nice family dinner on Valentine's Day. I usually write love letters to each of my girls and Mitch buys them little gifts.
Then Mitch and I usually chose another night - one easier to get a sitter and one easier to find a nice place to sit without waiting til midnight - to go enjoy each other's company without shrieking children. This year, we're going out tomorrow - dinner and a movie. We don't usually do a whole lot with gifts but a card and/or something small is usually in order.
What are your V-Day plans?

- I'm passionately in love with Jesus. He overwhelms me. I'm outrageously in love with my husband of 11 years. He stole my heart. I'm giddily in love with my kids. They make me laugh.

Your tradition sounds fun!
Thinking we'll either go out tonight or tomorrow just the two of us. Then on V-Day my mom will be staying the night with us; she doesn't have a "Valentine" so we're going to try to make the evening extra special for her!
I actually really like Valentine's Day, but I never plan anything.
I am probably going to make a heart-shaped chocolate cake with strawberry frosting and red sprinkles for dessert and that's about all.
We're similar; little gifts for everyone; dinner with the fam. We usually eat red stuff. I think last year we had spaghetti with red sauce and Scott made some alfredo sauce, so we mixed some pink sauce up. ;) We try for dates on other nights, too. Vday is too complicated to go out! :)
What a sweet tradition! I was never raised to be the sentemental type, but now that I am older and little wiser, I know how important traditions are. I just wish these things came easier to me. I have little imagination!
What a fun tradition! This year Valentine's is leaving the kids and being with a bunch of jr. high girl's and a couple of guys. Thursday night is our normal jr. high youth group night, so we are doing a sappy movie jeopardy game. We got a carnation for each of the girls and we are having cup cakes and of course little heart candy. Not a romantic night with my man but we should have fun anyway!
