Little RED shoes



My beautiful husband surprised me this Valentine's Day with a pair a little red shoes.

There are so many things that I love and admire about Daniel.

Really, I could write a book.

Just yesterday...

-he came from home work and shared a cup of tea with me before tutoring.
-he wrestled and played with the boys for at least an hour. Dan was The Joker.
-he made dinner for us and for a family struggling with cancer.
-he encouraged me to go out and get some exercise with a dear friend.
-he cleaned up from dinner.
-he made the boys' lunches for today and set up for coffee.
-he started a bath for us and lit candles.
-he read me Psalm 40 as we listened to U2's song 40 before bed.
-he kissed my back and my neck and told me how beautiful I was and how much I meant to him.

I love that nothing trumps me or the boys on this earth in his eyes. He is not distracted by the computer, by his cell phone, or by other priorities. I love that he loves me with a Christ-like love that I long to return tenfold.

Thank you, Lord that you have graciously given me a man that loves like you.

Tell Dan how much we love him. I made Chris watch a few videos about the Toms shoes. What a great business model. How do you like the shoes?
