cold hands, warm hearts

I don't remember where this saying comes from... Kay Jewelry maybe??

I feel like my today was a perfect example of this saying coming to life. It was terribly cold today. My hands (and feet and ears and nose) were all literally so cold. However, as I reflect on all the goodness that this day encompassed, my heart feels so warm.

It started with a late start so we were able to spend a few extra minutes warming our toes and cuddling with the morning bottle instead of jumping out of bed to start the day. My day at work was nothing special or out of the ordinary. The warm heart part really kicked in around 6:30 this evening when our little boy was starting his evening bottle and cuddling on my lap to his bedtime story. He was so cuddly tonight. He is not always cuddly and easily contented, so when he is I really relish in it. We cuddled for a good 45 minutes before he fell asleep in my arms. Ohhh.... what a beautiful thing. This boy truly melts my heart... even on the coldest of days!

Proverbs 23:26
"My son, give me your heart and let your eyes keep to my ways..."
