Ahhhhh, yes. Valentine's Day. :)
Or as others call it, the fourteenth of February.
I realized that I am a very lucky girl.
Which is true everyday of the year, but today I was reminded of just how blessed I am.
Valentine's Day isn't always about having a certain someone to share it with. (Significant other, if you may.) It's just about showing and reminding everyone in your life how much you love them. I guess we just need a specific day of the year to make it extra special. :)
Last year, I really had a great Valentine's Day. I spent it with all of my jazz choir buddies in Audubon at the jazz choir festival, I got a rose from my big brudder, I got some flowers from my daddy, and a bunch of other sweet stuff from my friends and family. :)
This year's Valentine's Day was just as great!! (Maybe a little bit better. :) shhhh…)
I gave a little cheesy present to my friend Joshua Rietgraf. I think he enjoyed it. He's the bomb.com.
And I'm quite proud of this gift. Idea credit goes to Cassi McMullen. :)
So here's the story. I was told to go to the band room at 3:00. So, I patiently waited for the end of the day to come, and when I got to the band room, Joshua was there. From there, we walked out to Peter's truck and he gave me these beautiful flowers with a very sweet card! :D He also got me some candy. :)
Needless to say, I was a happy girl.
And from my daddy I got some cute little chocolates. :)
But most of all, I was reminded of how much God loves me. :)
Each and everyday He shows me all of the blessings He's given me in my life. The challenges, the bad days, the great days, all of the things I have, and all of the people I get to be with everyday. And I think that's what really topped off my Valentine's Day. :) It wasn't the wonderful flowers and candy, although those were pretty great. :) It was just the fact that I have a God who is crazy about me.
