My Sunday School little ones with their Moses coloring sheets...when asked this morning what Valentines Day was about, they said "pink hearts" and "loving each other". Sounds like they have a good understanding of what's it's all about!
Gage has loads of love for his friends and family. I believe it is partly because he is an only child, and does feel lonesome sometimes. The Good Lord knew what he was doing when he gave me just one little boy. But He also knew what he was doing when he gave me nieces and nephews! One little guy fits our lifestyle just perfectly...not to say if we were surprised with another blessing we would be unhappy! However, at 40, I'm so satisfied with blessings God has given me.
Before Gage began Kindergarten, I was looking forward to doing my grocery shopping and things without a permanent sidekick. After he started school, I found out I was waiting until he was home to go into town and waited for him to help me clean his room. I was lonesome without him, without his chatter and his loud thumping and bumping. I had to learn how to entertain myself all over again. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be, at all! I am finally adjusting to him being away from me after five years of sticking to my side. However, as my six year old niece told Gage with confidence "You'll always be your Momma's baby, won't you?" He will always be my baby. Just as she'll always be her Momma's baby. The hugs will only get sweeter, the love will only grow deeper and Valentine's Day will become better every year. In fact, I believe I am privileged to have Valentine's Day all 365 days of the year!
