It's 34 minutes past the day of the year...hmm, Valentine's Day. How Valentine's Day came about, intrigued me. It was said that St. Valentine was a priest in Rome, possibly a Bishop. And he was a physician. Imprisoned for giving aid to martyrs in prison, he converted the jailer by restoring sight to the jailer's daughter. There were two others who had the name Valentine and were martyrs on the same day - 14th Feb. But even though these two, Valentine of Terni and Valentine of Rome sometimes have separate entries in martyrologies and biographies, most scholars believe they are the same person. Also said that it is halfway during the second month, that birds begin to pair. Hmm..interesting huh?? =D
Had a great day for Valentines. Morning was spent with my boys at St. Stephens. I'm coming to love the kids more and more as each week passes by, a good 360 degrees turn of wanting to vomit blood every time they make my blood boil. Sometimes I wonder what it is like having a soccer team (mind you, all guys in that team) under my roof when I become a mother sometime in the future. Hmm... I predict that I'll die early of heart attack, leaving my darling husband alone with the kids and that'll let him know how tough it is. Ahh.
I think all guys should learn to be house husbands at some point of their lives. Now see how most husbands are so dependable on their wives? Bleah.
And evening was great...(^-^)
Flowers, cotton candies and proclaimations of I love yous...
No I didn't receive them all.
But I got something better...something that cannot be seen or touched...something that cannot be bought...something that reaches far beyond and sustains, nurtures and grows day by day =)
Leaving a passage behind that was meant to be...
Love is patient and kind;
it is not jealous or conceited or proud;
love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable;
love does not keep a record of wrongs;
love is not happy with evil but is happy with the truth.
Love never gives up;
and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.
Love is eternal.
=1 Corinthians;13=

How common this paragraph of the bible is. Anyone can quote this verse like no one's business. Therein lies the hard part...for actions speak louder than words just as how prayers and meditation work hand in hand with everything that goes on in our everyday lives.
To my family, my best friends, good buddies,
and specially to mon cheri...
Jesus wuffs you...and I wuff you too...(^-^)
