Cut out the pink and red hearts with crazy scissors, say sweet words of affirmation to your loved ones, and cozy-in with some chocolate covered goodies! I love, love and we're going to make this Valentine's day simple yet lovely.
Since it falls on a Monday Mark and I are planning a date for the two of us this weekend and having a family date at home on Valentine's. Here's some ingredients were putting together for a fun date night as a couple and as a fam.
Couple's Date
I am a big fan of Nancy Ray and she shared on her podcast 10 fun questions for you next date night. These questions are suppose to be unique and lead the conversation to topics that aren't work/kid/family/everyday cares related. So over our filet mignon and baked potato we'll ask each other:
If you could relive a year in your life, what age would you choose?
What would constitute a perfect day for you?
If you could change your first name what would you change it to
How have I changed since we first met?
What is your fav childhood memory?
Who do you respect the most and why?
Who is one famous person you’d like to meet
If safety wasn’t a concern, what natural disaster would you like to experience and why?
Is there something you’ve dreamed of doing for a long time? If so, why haven’t you'd one it?
10. War has broken out and it’s not longer safe! We’ve just been told that we have 3 days to move before it gets too dangerous. Where are we going?
(Tip: screen shot this for your next date night!)
If you've read any of my goal posts in the past you know I'm a big fan of powersheets, which is a yearly goal planner. Goals tend to get a bad rep, but when broken into bite size pieces goals are the fuel that drives my vision for each year and leads me to where I want to be at the end of my life.
Planting in faith is no easy feat. It all starts under the soil. In the unseen. Growing through dirt. But this daily/weekly/monthly choice is one that grows a beautiful bloom. And this bloom is that much more rewarding because it reminds us of the hidden work it took to grow such a gift.
But it's not hidden from everyone. God see's the heart. And I can only imagine the joy it brings Him to see his children grow. Good gravy I get all teary-eyed looking back on my own kiddo's growth.
Um... yeah, I can't fathom. Glory be.
2022 Goals
I'll spend a little time at the beginning of each month and week picking out a few tasks and objectives that will help me move toward these goals in grace.
What about you? What is God calling you to in 2022? It's never to late to look at where you are and where you want to be. I had a handful of things from January that are now on my February tending list, because #grace. Moving forward is more than good. XO
