Today's Best Gifts



Husband's

#1 - The gift of March
It's the first day of March and you know what that means
They'll play and they'll play 'til there's only one team
From towns and big cities they all come to dance
And at the beginning each team has a chance!

Tournaments start today in the Championship Fortnight, now the madness has begun!

#2 - The gift of apocalyptic theology - Oh Revelation! John, what we would do in coffee shops if we couldn't talk about beasts, the whore of Babylon and the end of the world. Probably just peacefully drink Shamrock Mochas. (But at least we all agree on the ending, we end up in God's arms!)

#3 - The gift of developing an insider vocabulary - Sweetest, our innocent text conversation about sweet onions has me looking forward to our future times of perusal together!

Wife's

#1 - The gift of family dance parties - There are only a few things better than spontaneously breaking it down with my boys. Have to demonstrate their excellent taste in music, play video.

#2 - The gift of aging gracefully - After sitting at the dinner table for an hour and a half, a half finished bowl of soup still lingers at Gid's spot. Thank the Lord that the "threes" don't last forever! Until then, may we all have grace, grace, and more grace.

#3 - The gift of weekly duality - It's Tuesday, so that means it's time for ice cream while watching The Biggest Loser with the hubs! It looks like those contestants are working so hard, maybe I can break a sweat by eating...faster? *Spoon to mouth, back to bowl, repeat*


What inside words do you have with your "Sweetest"? What songs make your family dance?

  2. I'm totally on board with "Tenderoni," but recently Gid and I have been getting down to a lot of late 90's ska. That's right, we be a skankin' and a swimmin'!
