This Valentine's Day was not the way you would think of spending it, but was very special. We arrived in Summerfield, FL the evening before Valentine's day and were invited for supper at our Mission President's home. His wife prepared a lovely meal of turkey, rice, salad, corn, lima beans, rolls, and ice cream. It was neat to also have another visiting missionary family join us. Their 4 children and our 3 children ate in a separate area off of the kitchen while just the adults ate in the formal dining room. It was relaxing and enjoyable to dine and fellowship without the noise of the children, with soft music in the background, and candles lit on the table. They told us it was our Valentine's dinner. It was much better than the usual way we spend Valentine's day - usually on the field and not able to get out for a nice meal or evening together.
Last year we were in the process of packing to come back to the States and I don't even remember how we spent Valentine's Day!
