Carl - I love you because you take care of my laundry and ironing. It really makes it easier for me to get out the door in the morning.

Kimberly - I love you because you are making memories with the boys by playing games with them at night.

We have been trying to break the habit that our children have of being attached to electronics. Our children are constantly asking to play with the  Nintendo, iPad, iPods, computers, televisions, and phones.   At the kids exchange I found some really cool games for the little ones that we have been playing. I bought Carl Axis and Allies for his birthday. That is a game that he loved to play as a teenager. At Target on our date night we found Star Wars Monopoly and the boys love it. They have played every night. I am so glad to come downstairs and see games being played instead of the television on. It encourages me that it is possible to break this habit that we have instilled in our children. Carl, you are truly making memories with the kids and it makes me love you that much more.
