Happy Valentine's Day!
Here is a poem I wrote for Jeff several years ago, but is still so true today.

I love you...
I love you for who you are
I love you for who you are when Kimi needs a shoulder to cry on.
I love you for who you are when Beth just needs to talk.
I love you for who you are when Braden wants a new car.
I love you for who you are when Zach wants "something!"
I love you for who you are when Jenna sits on your lap.
I love you for who you are when you sing to Quinn.
I love you for who you are when we are on a cross country trip.
I love you for who you are
I love you...

On this Valentine's day take the time to say I love you to all the special Valentine's in your life. Make every day this year a Valentine's Day!

Angels

I never really know which poem to share unless there is something in particular going on in my life. Today I don't really have any special feelings but I did want to print one. I don't even remember when or why I wrote this one. I know Jenna and Quinn were pretty young.

Blessed With Angels

Why was I blessed with angels

living in my house?

Roaring loudly like the lions

or playing quiet as a mouse?

Angel kisses every morning

as I rise to meet the day

Hoping that I don't let them down

I go before the Lord to pray.

Side by side they play together

singing, laughing is their plight.

Then along comes the devil

and they all begin to fight.

They know the Lord is on their side

so with their angel wings

They chase away temptation

and the sorrow that it brings.

Everyday I know it's worth it

going through the toil and strife,

That's why I was blessed with angels

in this earthly life.
