Yes, we went to The Happiest Place on Earth on Tuesday, and yes, peeps, we had a wonderful time.
So wonderful, in fact, that we are planning to take advantage of the other two days our tickets bought us and go back in the next couple weeks. So the Mouse-related pictures, they will be forthcoming.
But first I must show you this:
Isn’t he just the sweetest?
Even though John’s in the Sandy Spot, even though we tend to not make a big deal out of Valentine’s Day, and even though I’m not even at home today, he called the florist in my home town and had flowers and soft Valentine bear sent to me at my parents’ house today.
And, yes–do you even need to ask??–of COURSE I bawled my li’l eyeballs out.
And thanks to all of you who sent me Happy Valentine’s Day emails since my Valentine is gone… and regular sweet emails… and snail-mail notes… and Facebook notes… and videos to watch of special trips and wedding days (you know who you are)… and so many of you are people I don’t even know in “real life”.
I certainly feel loved this Valentine’s Day.
Oh my goodness, you’re gonna make me bawl my li’l eyeballs out too! With tears, sniffles, prayers, a tight knot in throat (from holding back more tears), and lots of hugs… I’m so glad your hunny was able to do that for you, very sweet. *hugs* -Meg

I’m so glad for you, Ashleigh. That has got to feel great because it is a tangible connection with John. And I’m glad for you that you get to be with your parents right now. That HAS to be easier in dealing with 2 little ones. You can have adult conversation! And somehow, when I am with children AND adults, it often times makes me enjoy the time with the children more :o) Happy Valentine’s!

Ohhhhhhh, what a sweet teddy bear and beautiful bouquet. I know it truly brightened your day, although probably made you miss your Valentine a bit more than you already do. What a sweetheart you have!
Have a happy Valentine’s Day!

I happened to read your “love story” on YLCF a couple of months ago.
I was going through a difficult time with a relationship with a young man.
I am 17, just about the same age you were when you started courting you husband. Your story impacted me deeply and helped me through that hard time of waiting and not knowing for sure what I was supposed to do next.
Thank you so much, I will forever be grateful to you.
I am thinking and praying for you during this year-May the grace of God surround you and bring you unmeasurable peace.
Love, Olivia

I’ve been praying for you, friend! I just came over here to see if you had anything new up, and decided to read your love story. WOW is all I can say! Every now & then I see comments from young ladies who have read that, and I wanted to tell you what a wonderful example you are to them. The Lord has used your words to touch so many people (including myself). I’m thankful for you!
