love letters...

yesterday... was just an ordinary day... 

until i walked into our study...

and found...

 an extraordinary little love letter... 

Summer 2013

Bradley [7] had thoughts just of me when he stooped down unseen...

 to pick this little yellow wild flower...

and a heart full of love when he...

 placed it on my laptop for me to find later...like treasure...

and in doing so he gave me not only one gift, but two...

a flower and a surprise...

 and

 my

 heart

 was

 full...

Winter 2013

lol i love the 'am are' bit...

it's an inside joke :)

found long after being penned by Brandon [15]

what a lovely feeling...the best compliment i could EVER get...

Spring 2013

same story here...except that this time it was a love note from Bianca-Leigh [18]

how is it that something so small can make me so happy...?!

it is without a doubt... this kind of beauty that chases away the ugly of motherhood...

and so...

 i am left in no doubt...

when i love... i love... 

and so do they :)

Dear Lord...thank you that...

here in this season of ...'us' and 'we' and 'ours'... as in all seasons past and all seasons yet to come...

our hearts are full

Amen
