We made some super Valentines this weekend.
Yesterday, I went grocery shopping and somehow managed to get what we needed despite being nasally oppressed by roses and having to face the humungous Valentine robot guard at the door surrounded by a gazillion other helium balloons.
Lydia and I partied with a kindergarten class this morning.
So, in between popping chocolates into your mouth tonight from your hubs, why don’t you consider talking a bit more deeply about what love looks like as couple and as a family.
That’s my plan.
And, then head over here and consider something super romantic–taking a parenting purity pledge.
When the rest of the country is all ga ga about romantic love, take some time to read what makes up a “parenting purity pledge” and maybe even look up the Scripture referenced there together as a couple. Consider if you can really commit to the things laid out there.
I know I’m challenged by them.
Like seriously challenged.
But, I know I want that for my family and for us as parents. And, reading through those commitments are just what I need right now as we work on developing a mission and vision for our family.
And, you get a little reward if you take that pledge too–a free download from Seeds Family Worship from their new purity cd released today and a free digital devotional from Family Life. Warning – be prepared to buy the whole album because just the one song is only a teaser which will leave you wanting to download the rest of the collection here. And, as a little bonus for you, enter the code SPARROW for 20% off any or all of their CDs. That’s in honor of The Sparrow Fund, folks. Thank them over at Seeds Family Worship for that.
Happy Valentine’s Day, folks. May it be one that leads you to some conversation about true love…and maybe some crazy balloons and roses to boot. Who knows.
