I LOVE Him...

This is our 27th Valentine's to be in love. He is my best friend, my husband, my pastor, an incredible Dad, the best father-in-law any girl could ever want, a wonderful son, a great son-in-law, a friend to many, a mentor, a Godly man, but I am glad he is my Valentine. I LOVE him...

The past 27 years have given me many memories. We have shared some wonderful times together and have braved storms together. Kent is an optimist, a man of faith, a visionary, full of humor, loving, compassionate, and dedicated. He is very tender to our children and to me. Today he made sure Redonia had a candy bouquet for Valentine's. He gave Trent & Calah a little gift. Of course he made sure everything was planned perfectly for our weekend together, too. We had dinner tonight @ Pesce. I love seafood and it is truly some of the best. While having dinner he presented me with a most beautiful box of homemade truffles from Chocolate Passion. I love cards and he gave me a card with words that was simply 'us'. He laughed because he bought two cards. I'll get the other one tomorrow. Aaaahhhh how sweet! I LOVE him...

Tomorrow we are going to simply enjoy being with one another. We aren't sure where our day will lead but it will be great just spending it together. We'll start with breakfast and then we plan to take a little road trip. We love riding and holding hands. I LOVE him...

Some years we have chosen to eat more elaborately, give more elaborate gifts, or do more elaborate things. This year how ever we decided the greatest gift we can give to one another is ourself. There's absolutely nothing more important to me than Kent. I LOVE him...

I LOVE my Valentine of 27 years. I know it seems over used but I truly love him more today than ever. He's my boyfriend.....I LOVE him...

Awe!!! This is sweet to enjoy each others company after all those years..LOL I am teasing about the years. In times past I have heard people say they couldn't wait for their spouse to go back out of town on their job or whatever and I never understood. I am so thankful that my life has been full of people like yourself who just love being together. If my husband has to be at the office all day I nearly die. We have been so blessed to be with each other all the time. I hope tomorrow brings you many new memories to cherish and provides you with that special time to reflect on the old ones. Love ya'll and Happy Valentines Day!!!

Love . . . one of the many benefits of living for God. He has filled our hearts with love for Him and for each other. In a world where affections are misplaced, I'm thrilled to read of marriages that are strong and hearts that are bound in love. You and Kent fit the bill. Enjoy each day and live it as though it were your last one together. Love you both

Hope your day was all you expected it to be!! It's so wonderful to love and know that you are loved! Happy Valentines!

We spoke with a minister today who said he doesn't celebrate Valentines day! I feel bad for his wife! He at least needs to celebrate Sweethearts Day! I would feel so unloved! I loved every minute of our hurried lunch before the weddiing of a new convert couple!
