Mandy’s Monday – Count Down

I love Valentines day!  I love all that comes with Valentine’s Day: the cards, the hearts, the pink and red everywhere, the CHOCOLATE!!  I just enjoy the focus being on love itself!  It does not have to be romantic love, although I am thankful for my wonderful husband in ways that no words can describe, to me the day brings the chance to celebrate love in many different forms.  My girls always want to make tons of cards and will spend days doing so.  Last year we made heart cookies and really enjoyed them as well as giving them away.

Why in the world am I writing about Valentine’s Day on January 25th?  One week from today will be February 1st and I have plans I want to tell you about

This year I will make a count down blog to Valentine’s Day and it will start February 1st.  Each day I will post three quotes on love.  The first category will be a Scripture passage or quote about the love of the Lord.  He is the BEST @ love, that is for sure!  What better example and encouragement can we have than the Lord himself.  The second quote will be from Jane Austen and one of her beloved novels.  If you have not figured it out by now I have a small obsession with Jane Austen novels!  The final category will be motherhood.   A mother’s love is constant!

So check back and count down with me as we are together encouraged by the Lord’s love, touched by love seen in fictional characters and reminded of our own mother’s love or our need to BE a loving Mom.
