So, I think most of you know by now, but if you don’t, I hate Valentines Day. Not because of the holiday, I mean, I completely support people going on dates and taking a day to make sure their loved ones know they care… Go for it by all means. And call me to babysit because even when I am married, I will probably not ever be partaking in Valentines Day Events. Basically just some crappy stuff has happened on Valentines Day, and long story short my boyfriend at the time ended up with a kid conceived on V-Day, that wasn’t mine. (Nor would have ever have been a possibility for it to be mine.) But my heart was ripped to pieces. Still is in fact, not quite all the pieces are glued back in place. But if you’re ever hurting, Go babysit for Heidi’s kids. They just make life fun, you would have never known I had cried all day prior to going there because I was so happy when I left her house. There is something about a smile on a kid’s face, and their genuine love for life and in Heidi’s family, Jesus. They have an apparent love for God. And it cheered me up. It made me see that I do have a Valentine, and I’m not alone. I may be lonely but I am not alone.
Funny how some kiddos age 7 and almost 3 can have such an affect… Amazing. I’m so glad I went to babysit for her tonight, one it saved me from being alone on Valentines Day, and two, I was cheered up by a pair of rascals running around the house with strawberry soda moustaches. Gotta love the kids. So happy Valentines day, Hope it was a good one for those of you that participate. But even more than the earthly loved one’s we call our Valentines, I hope you all realized that Jesus is and will for ever be your Valentine if you accept his offer. So I wasn’t alone tonight, I had a Valentine and two amazing children and a good friend who I stayed with and talked to until 10:30. So I guess I really am right, I may be lonely but I sure am not alone.
Buenas Noches, Te Quiero,
Ashleigh
