Reforming Motherhood

Feb. 14, 2007 - Bragging on my man

HeartHappy Valentines Day, dear readers!

 

 

Can I just say that my *favorite* part of Valentines day is the gift my husband gives me?  I already know what he'll be giving me, though I don't know all it contains. 

 

Every year Mark gives me a CD on Valentines Day.  Not just any old CD, mind you.  But a CD with songs he has selected for me.  He chooses songs that emote his love or feelings for me, or songs that would evoke memories of our year together.  And he writes a brief paragraph about why he chose that song.  So basically it ends up being a love letter to me along with a fun new CD for me to listen to.

Update: For those who are curious, here's the 2007 song list:

 

I Can't Help Myself- The Temptations

Only Heart- John Mayer

Jesus, Take the Wheel- Carrie Underwood

Get Rhythm- Johnny Cash (and my favorite song on the CD)

Stranger in this Land- Waterdeep

Whatever You Ask- Steve Camp

How Great is Our God- Chris Tomlin

God of Wonders- Third Day (when this song comes on my three-year old shouts, "This is my song!" :))

Redeemer- Nicole C. Mullen

Majesty (Here I Am)- Hillsong & Delirious

Facedown- Matt Redman

It Is Well- Brian & Harry Doerksen

'Tis So Sweet- Danielle & Devin Dean, Garland Phillips (my favorite hymn)
