Love Month

For the month of February, I saw a cute activity I thought I would try.  Although we were a few days behind from vacation, on Monday, I completed it for 3 days during nap.  When Hudson awoke I showed him the hearts on his door sharing things I love about him.  We then read together the ones on Charli's door.  He looked to my door.  

"Where are your hearts, mommy?" 

"Well, sweetheart, I just made them for YOU!" 

I went back to tackling laundry and hadn't noticed Hudson had been so quiet.  The next I knew he was asking me for help.  

I looked and he had drawn pictures for our door and was struggling with tape trying to attach them.  

"Because I love you too." He said sweetly.  

Ahh, that Hud.  My heart burst.  

This is us when we were on the airplane headed to the beach.  :). Yep.  He's talented.  

I have really enjoyed surprising the kids with new hearts on their doors and hearts on Barks' nightstand each day,  it's been a lot of fun to focus on what I love about each of them and reminds me so much of how my mom woul decorate my bedroom door for each holiday.  

I hesitate to continue, but just as I thought my heart was full I found another heart hiding in my iPad last night.  

I don't take compliments very well.  I'm working on it.  Really, I am. But this one. Well, I think it's the best one I have ever received.  

If I do one thing in my life, I hope that everyone always knows how much I love them.  And if I take after my Mom and Dad in one way, I hope that is it.  I never doubt their love for me and I hope they never doubt mine either. 

Happy Love month everyone!  

May you each use this month to share with those you love all the wonderful things you love about them.
