1. I ❤ that the Y offered free babysitting tonight so that Kent and I could go out for Valentine's Day. Did I mention that we went out Saturday night as well? We'll take all the us time we can get!
2. I ❤ holidays. Any way to make the day more exciting and get gifts is fabulous.
3. I ❤ Kent. He knows me better than I know me. He's perfect. In every way! Tonight he came home from the coroner's office and told me every detail of the autopsy they did on a hit and run victim. He ❤ me.
4. I ❤ chocolate milk and m&ms. I've had a lot of them the past few days. But I did run 13 miles on Saturday so I say I deserve it.
5. I ❤ed sitting and watching the Grammy's red carpet with Kent last night. Did anybody else see Lady Gaga's entrance in an egg? weeeeeird.
6. I ❤ sitting in bed at night and playing 'angry birds' simultaneously with Kent.
7. I ❤ Ohio. and I ❤ that we get to stay for Kent's residency.
8. I ❤ teaching! Right now I'm teaching seminary here, and then cheer, art, Russian, and fitness classes at the Y and I'm in teaching heaven.
9. I also ❤ teaching my kiddos. Zeb is full on reading and I'm definitely more excited than him :)
10. I really ❤ my rugrats and their craziness. Last week Zeb asked us:
"if Jesus speaks to my heart- then who speaks to my intestines?".
11. I ❤ the Gospel. It puts everything in the right place for me.
12. I ❤ to read. and I ❤ed "Battle Hymn of The Tiger Mother". I swear it's already changed my life as a parent.
13. I ❤ that we are going to AUSTRALIA! AHHHHH. I can't even sleep at night lately because I'm too excited thinking about it.
14. I ❤ my life. Every last bit. I am the luckiest girl.

Happy Valentines! I LOVED all your comments and I would be pretty excited to go to Australia also!
What fun posts! Thanks for sharing. You are so upbeat and that attitude really rubbed off onto ME!! haha
I can't BELIEVE Zeb is reading!! Well - of course, I CAN believe it - he is a little genius. But, seriously - that is awesome. GOOD JOB!
Tiger Mothering requires SO. Much. Energy. ;) I wonder how effective my bipolar parenting style will work out ... Tiger Mother occasionally - and then days of "whateva - do what ya want!" LOL.
You are an inspiration, Leisy. Can't wait to see you guys soon!
PS - I laughed so hard at the "who speaks to my intestines" comment. HAHAHAHA! He's getting the concept of the new song this year - "If I Listen With My Heart, I'll hear the Savior's Voice" - that's pretty awesome.
Great list! Love that everything is going so great for you and your family...and you're going to Australia??? Is Oprah taking you? (just kidding!) Well, have a great time and those kiddos are so smart and funny too!
Australia!! That is way too cool! Love your list!
Loved this blog. Love that you two are so happy together and you've got two of the brightest children ever. We should all remember and celebrate all the good things we have in our lives.
When are you going to Aussie? You will find the weather a little warmer, lol
Also, how did you do the heart shape in the blog post?
Have you started comparing your two kids as a newly-initiated tiger mom? I am so excited to discuss that book.
lynds- we've been comparing them since day 1! Zeb is well aware that Ike is already almost caught up to him in fine and gross motor development.
You're going to Australia?!? Holy frijoles. That is the best vacation-to-celebrate-the-end-of-medical school that I've ever heard!
p.s. Thanks for the book recommendation. I've never heard of it before.
I hate Lady Gaga.
