Things I Love...
Since I didn't get around to doing a Valentine's post this month, I thought I'd spend a little time thinking about the things I love. This list is by no means comprehensive, just what's going through my head right now...

Those are great! And I know that you have three jobs, mother/wife, kindermusic and music teacher at school, but what is the third? Is it church related?
I was including my job with Stories in Concert/Sleepy Hollow.
Oh, yeah. That is definitely one huge job!!
Dang, wish I played the piano. Could use a little relaxation. I'm really good at the bathtub, though. I keep meaning to ask you how "Alice" is going? Bring it up next time we talk!
I loved your list - it makes me remember the things I am thankful for - I need to do that more often!
Miss you, Courtney! I haven't read the stimulus package yet, but I agree with your previous post on the less-than-impressed with the scare tactics.
Which makes me appreciate your current post all the more. Mind if I borrow it? I didn't write anything for Valentine's Day either.
