A Valentine's Day To Remember

I have to be honest here...sometimes when all the kids are home and we're all in one room together, I just want to scream! It's so loud and crazy and there are times when it's torture. (I said I was being honest!)

Last night was quite the opposite! For Valentine's Day, we all prepared dinner together (3 kids, 2 adults in our little kitchen) and ate by candlelight...kids and all! It was so much fun and the kids just loved it. It wasn't a romantic dinner, but it was beautiful just the same. It was our little family in our little corner of the world and it was just a glimpse of heaven on earth. Luka thought it was the most exciting thing we've ever done and DiMarco got the giggles halfway through the evening that just wouldn't stop. Ellen cracked us all up with her fear of flames, which makes absolutely no sense at all because she has three million candles in her room! Chris and I sat across from each other and just smiled at all the glorious chaos! I have the best husband and the best kids anyone could ever ask for. A Valentine's Day to remember!
