Best Valentines day ever...

I am not a huge fan of Valentines Day.  I probably havent been since high school.  It is somewhat ridiculous to me and a waste of money. 
But today, I had a good one.  And I shed some tears....maybe my mind has changed in the way i look at it?
Mike sent my favorite flowers (tulips) to work today....even though I was off.  I went and picked them up and was so happy that he remembered what my favorite flowers are, I wasnt even bothered by the fact that I told him over and over that I was off today  :)

Then I got to pick my boy up from school after his valentine party.  He made me a gorgeous valentine with a picture of himself holding a big heart that says "i love you".   (well his teachers helped)  When we got in the car, he was talking about daddy. I said "you love your daddy, dont you?"  and he said " I love my mama".  OH...It brought tears to my eyes.  The first time he has ever said that.  Then he proceeded to show me where his heart was and that it made a ba-bum sound, which he did over and over.  He is so smart and sweet.  I think he learned alot today at school!

Mike finally got home and showered me with champagne and chocolate covered strawberries, while I cooked him a very special meal that he enjoyed immensely.  Overall...I think with the right person and celebrating with your family, it can be a day of love.  But we should have days filled with love every day....just not chocolate, that wouldnt be good for us ;)

As some of you know, we are trying to get pregnant again.  I took a test today, but it turned up negative.  I am pretty sure its a little early to tell.  So I hope to be able to share good news in a week as we get closer to when I should know!!  Preston needs a sibling.  He really loves interacting with other kids and I think he is going to make a great big brother (even though he is jealous of anyone getting near mommy- guess that is something we need to work on).  I just hope that things work out the way we hope.  After the last pregnancy and subsequent miscarriage, I hope things are back in the correct working order.  we have waited about five months to try again, but I hear many people having problems for years after.  I pray for them to acheive what they want and at the same time hope that we dont have those problems.  Its in Gods hands and all I can do is have faith.
