Today I Kissed an Angel

Today I kissed an angel
I knew it from the start
the first time my angel smiled at me
I gave away my heart

today I kissed an angel
this angel child of mine
though not of my creation
my child by God's design

today I kissed an angel
my heart is dancing wild
a family, by a miracle
blessed by this angel child

Happy Valentines Day

Nine years ago Spencer was a poor missionary serving in Alice, Texas. Even though he had little money he wanted to do something special for Valentines day. He spent an entire p-day coloring in the worlds "I Love you" on a giant red heart that he rolled up, put in a giant mailing tube and sent to me filled with hugs and kisses. On the back of the heart he taped a note that said

"Here is 'my' heart for you
with some 'hugs' and 'kisses'
for whom my love is true!
Will you be mine this Valentines?

Love,
Elder Strickland"



We have moved twice and it has been nine years but I still have that heart. I can't seem to get rid of it. It was the best valentine he could have sent!

I Love you honey!
