Today was an awesome day! I woke up to my husband kissing me and telling me he was going to the church to help with the music team. A couple hours later I finally got out of bed and started to get ready for church. My daughters made me a wonderful breakfast of peanut butter toast w/honey and hot cocoa. Also, there were fresh muffins in the oven. Darian made me an origami tulip – very sweet.
Then I look outside and there is a beautiful new bougainvillia plant from my husband and he also left me a wonderful card. It said:
You Will Always Have My Love
In everything you hope or do, I’ll encourage and believe in you,
For your every joy is my joy too – You will always have my love.
No matter what, no matter where, You can count on me and I’ll be there,
To understand, to show I care – You will always have my love.
You’re at the heart of everything that truly matters to me. I love you and I always will.
He woke up super early and went to the store to buy me these things – he picked them out himself and he knew I loved the bougainvillia. We had decided against it because it was a little on the pricey side (for our budget) but once I saw it on our entertainment patio – I knew it belonged and it was so thoughtful….I am truly a blessed woman.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for blessing me with a wonderful and hard working husband. Thank you that we have our daughter back after a long week away at camp. Thank you for keeping her in your care. Lord, please bless us as we take our road trip tomorrow to Issaquah, and Lord I pray for Darian and her tumbling team – that they would compete well and be in good health. Help them each to do their best. Lord I commit my life to you and I commit my marriage to you and I commit my family to you.
You’re such an awesome God. Thank you for your love and care. Amen.
