Journal entry by Ann — Feb 14, 2017
As we celebrate our first holiday without Logan it is sure strange. I know Valentine’s Day isn’t one of the top holidays like Christmas, Thanksgiving, or Easter but we celebrate all things together. So even on this simple day we see that empty spot clearly. I think according to the world and other people we are different. Our family is really close and know each other really well. We take the time to talk and get to know the heart of each other.
This day is supposed to be dedicated to love, but we have dedicated all our days to love, kindness, and being thoughtful of others. I have dedicated my heart and time to God first, my husband second, and my children third. I have walked beside my kids through every situation they have come in contact with. I am Helping them, guiding them, and hopefully clearly showing them the love of Jesus. I am not a perfect parent, but I love my children and have been so blessed to be able to come along side them through all of life’s events and happenings. Thank you Lord for the time I get to have each one of them. Lord help me to invest in their hearts like you invest in mine!
Happy Valentine’s Day. Much love sent from our family to yours.
Love and hugs, Ann
