On the eve of Valentines Day 2012, I thought I would right a quick note about my girls.
I am always telling Avery that God gave her a sweet heart and that she needs to never forget he gave that sweetness to her. It's a special thing. She is very thoughtful towards other people and not the outward type of thoughtfulness like asking someone if they are feeling better or asking someone if they are okay. But the behind the scenes kind of caring. She asks to pray for people that she knows are sick, hurting or whose family member is ill. She will randomly bring people up and tell me she has been thinking of them. Or she asks to do things for them. She likes to write cards, send notes, do something to surprise someone etc. The other day we were getting our teachers valentines together and she asked if she could bring a valentine for the other Kindergarten teacher. I asked her why and reminded her that Mrs. L wasn't her teacher and she didn't have to bring her a valentine. But then she said "Well, Mom, she is really sweet and she always says hi to me and she helps me at carpool sometimes. I just want her to know that she is special." Precious! I love that she thinks outside the box for that kind of thing.

My sweet Riley Kate. I always here people saying how sweet boys can be and how they love their momma's. (I wonder if I'll get to find that out?) But for now, my Riley Roo is for sure that sweet to me if not sweeter. She tells me sweet things like I look pretty or I smell good at random times. She is my snuggler for SURE! She will scoot as close to me as possible on the couch and sit there completely content for so long. She will come to me out of the blue and kiss me on the forehead or wrap her arms around my neck and then run away and finish playing. :) I love you so much RK. You are one special little girl and God made you so unique! I hope you love Him lavishly, like you do me!
BTW, added a few pics of the girls school valentines this year.
