Valentine's Day was yesterday and after we exchanged cards (during breakfast prepared by Alex), we caught this moment between brother and sister. Alex did all the planning and treated us to a much-needed day out for the family, including a date for just us in the evening here. (If you are local and haven't been, call them now--the owners couldn't be sweeter and the entire place is spotless--ahhhhhh. Just what the body needed in deep mid-winter.)
Now that Olivia is babysitting-age, we just may go out more often. It was a great day with lots of little, meaningful gifts, but the best one of all for this mother, may be that hug at breakfast.
Hugs are underrated! I'm pleased you enjoyed a love-filled, relaxing Valentine's Day.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet! I've been reading your blog for a while and really enjoy it. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWow, sounds like the perfect valentine's day. :) Sigh.. I would love more than anything to spend an evening at the spa. It's so wonderful that you were able to catch such a sweet, warm embrace on camera!
ReplyDeleteThat is just as sweet as can be!
ReplyDeleteMy kids should hug more!
