Happy Valentines Day!!

My mom sent us a Valentine package and inside it was this book, "The Love Dare" and the movie Fireproof. I started reading the book and it is a 40 day guide on how to learn to really LOVE your spouse. To learn what LOVE really is. I am so excited about it and can't wait to watch the movie tonight with my Valentine :) I am starting today and today it teaches that love is patient.

a few thoughts from the book on patience:

"Love will inspire you to become a patient person. When you choose to be patient, you respond in a positive way to a negative situation. You are slow to anger."

"Patience, however, makes us wise. It doesn't rush to judgment but listens to what the other person is saying. Patience stands in the doorway where anger is clawing to burst in, but waits to see the whole picture before passing judgment."

Today's dare:
"Although love is communicated in a number of ways, our words often reflect the condition of our heart."
"Resolve to demonstrate patience and to say nothing negative to your spouse at all. If the temptation arises, choose not to say anything. It's better to hold your tongue then to say something you'll regret."

Thanks mom for this book and movie, I am excited about doing this and being a better wife and mother!!!! Wish me luck! or should I say patience :)

famous baby Emma
(story behind the fame, while Lili was home for the summer baby Emma was born and Lili was in love. When she moved back to Hawaii, that is all she would talk about for a good month was baby Emma, so all of the girls always name their dolls baby Emma. Now they have actually got to meet her.) Now you know why she is famous :)

Foodfest

We had Cambodian food this time, which consisted of spring rolls with peanut sauce, bbq beef, papaya salad and rice. It was tasty. And then there was the highlight for the girls. The bounce house. We gave them money so they stood in line and got their own tickets and then they stood in another line to get into the bounce house. They waited so patiently in a single file line.

and waited

and waited

and then they enjoyedthey had ALOT of energy to release :)

Kali also got her balloon animalKrew enjoyed dancing to the music
