365 Things.

The hardest part of this project is sorting through the daily endowment of blessings to find the one that inspired me most.  Although I don't write daily, the gift I do highlight is a compilation of 365 different blessings not necessarily in any order.  All the blessings are good gifts and remind me of my greatest blessing, His grace and compassion, His love.

28. Valentine's Day

The first Valentine's Day I remember was in the 2nd grade, and I've loved this holiday ever since. We took 2 HUGE hearts and pasted them together to form an envelope to receive our valentines from our friends the next day. 

I vaguely remember caring more about the valentine's from boys. 

Conversational hearts are my favorite, well all of them except the hot white ones. Right after Christmas, the stores line up the boxes of conversational hearts next to the red heart boxes filled with chocolate and my heart leaps for joy.

But what I love most about Valentine's Day is all the love being expressed through candy, chocolate, flowers, poems, cards, valentines, hugs, romantic dinners, a smile. 

I'm grateful for all the love I feel around me this Valentine's Day.
