Valentine's Special: Kirstin

I recently found this in my photos from Prague and it reminded me of Kirstin (it might even be why I took this picture): Kirst loves milk, loves fruit and loves chocolate!

Kirstin and Burke, last Christmas.  I love her smile!

Well my friends, we do not celebrate Valentine's Day around our house.  Aaron has a thing against "forced romance mushy-ness where flowers and chocolates are all but mandatory."  That being said, I thought I could celebrate other people this week. 

First up, my sister-in-law Kirstin.  She is uber-crafty, loves reading, and is all about frugality right now.  She loves her family and shows them how special they are to her.  Kirst has a super sweet spirit and is always encouraging someone.  She loves her husband and is never shy to say it!  Kirstin is devoted to her son Burke- she loves loves loves him and is a great mother.

I love how she loves other people, in big and small ways.  I always look forward to family holidays, in part due to Kirstin.  I am so glad that we are in the same family.  I love you Kirst!

One final note: Kirstin has even inspired me to do some of her great crafts!  Now that is what I call talent.
