Willy You My Valentine?





Love is in the Willy House! ❤️ shaped calzones for this crazy bunch of people I love to love! It is so fun to scroll IG and see the many ways people celebrate loving each other.  Here are some of ours: today, I folded all of the boys’ laundry for them and did the older girls’ daily chore/contributions for them, just because. Tomorrow, I’m teaching a friend how to make artisan bread and the triplets will help me make chocolate covered strawberries for Aaron and then I might even iron because a freshly pressed shirt is totally his love language. I patiently listened to a 25 minute detailed dissertation on dodgeball this afternoon because Valentine’s Day reminded me to be intentional and love better by listening better. My parents served me today by entertaining Sloane while Aaron and I met with the restoration company about getting the work on our house finally completed, and then they babysat again to rescue from 2 hours in the car during piano and cello lessons. Huge blessing and I felt the love! This year is a unique one because it only required making ONE valentine box 🥳! Soren loaded up his millennium falcon with all sorts of special cards and thoughtful, adorable treasures. I 🥰 this fun holiday and all its little ways to love well.

The love fest continued all weekend and into the following weekend. I made a chocolate fondue and cheese fondue. Eunice came over for a Sunday afternoon visit and brought her homemade chips that we love so much with bean dip and salsa, and I added some guac. the primary president gave heart balloons to all the primary children. Aaron brought home a pot of tulip bulbs that we enjoyed watching grow and bloom on our table. Corbin and Aaron made face pancakes and brought me breakfast in bed, and Aaron and I finally made it over to the new Torchys Tacos....which did not live up to the Texas torchys experience. But a date and a taco are always a win.
