Valentine's Day

Usually I leave this holiday to Isaac, but since he's working so hard and I have a bit (just a bit) more time at home to contemplate a wildly romantic day of events, I told him I'd take the reins this year. The day's events are a secret for now, but I'll tell you this much--I'm using one of the valentines on this page to write clues on for this week. And, being the good writer that I am, his week will be filled with fragments of the greatest love story ever told (ours).

And I'm not making the pillowcases, but I have to admit, I LOVE them and strongly considered appliqueing them :)
What are your plans for the day? Anything creative and unusual?

Marriage

Last night before going to sleep, my husband told me that his goal was to make me laugh everyday so that "there's always a smile in your eyes when I talk to you."

I do need to smile more, stress less, and enjoy life. 

I have tried the whole breathe-deep-and-center-yourself throughout the day, but that just doesn't do it for me. It's a much bigger mental battle than that. I'm so thankful I have a soulmate to help me when breathing isn't enough.
