Day 10. Wow I am actually doing this and keeping up with the challenge. It feels good!
Today is Arran's sixth birthday and while the girls were napping we worked some more on his Valentine Cards to take to school. He is so diligent (as well as being sweet and sensitive and kind) and I have so enjoyed watching him learn and grow in this first year of school. My little boy is growing up so quickly.
I don't look forward to the day of him sending real Valentines, the potential first loves who will break his heart. I already pray that God is preparing exactly the right little girl for him, who will some day be his wife. Who will truly love and cherish and honor and respect him, who will be his soul mate, who will not take advantage of his good nature. I also pray that when she comes along I will be ready and that she and I will have a wonderful relationship :)
For now, I am grateful that I am the only woman in his life.

What a blessing it is to be able to pray for our children's spouses! I pray that his special day today is extra doubly blessed! Great picture for 2/10 as well.
