I loved this past weekend. Two whole days and three nights of weekend, Valentine bliss.
Joe and I have never been ones to buy a lot for Valentine's Day. We might do a small gift or sometimes just cards. But we still make it a special day to pour on the love.
And Joe did pretty good this year.
There was love when I slept in on Saturday morning while Joe took care of Madeline.
There was love when I opened our fridge to find Coke, a rarity in our house but one of my favorite things in life.
There was love when he made, as Turk from Scrubs would say, "brinner" (breakfast for dinner).
There was love when Joe washed every. single. dish. from Friday to Sunday. Since we don't have a dishwasher and I spend about 67 percent of my days washing dishes, washing dishes is totally a language of love to me.
There was love in our homemade Valentine cards.
There was love when Joe watched two chick flicks with me over the weekend.
And yes, there was love when Joe put up with me as I broke my high score in BrickBreaker.
Me: "Oh, praise the Lord!"
Joe: "Um,yeah. I'm pretty sure He doesn't care about this."
Me: "I'm about to beat my high score!"
Joe: "I'm pitting out in excitement."
I translated his sarcasm into words of affirmation. I just know he was really pumped for me.

Big fans of brinner in this house. Gotta remember that.
Sounds like the perfect Valentines weekend. You need to remind Joe that he doesn't have to wait for a holiday to "pour on the love."
"Oh, praise the Lord!"? Did you actually say that? Because that made me laugh pretty hard. I can totally picture it.
Love it. Sounds like it was an awesome weekend!!!
The sleeping in thing? That's my love language.
I LOL when I saw "brinner" cuz we say that too! The kids gave my husband so many compliments last week when he made them brinner! Too funny.
Sounds like you had lots of love. Good for you all!
