L is for duh LOVE.
L is for Lewis
L is for LUCKY to have my 3 boys.
L is for light--the light in my heart.
L is for Life- the life I have.
L is for learn-
L is for Linen- oh how I love clean, crisp linen.
L is for laughter- at each other, at responsibility, at the bills, at ourselves.
L is for Lust and Lover--- sorry, couldn't resist!!
L is for a lot of things. Our L flag greets everyone at the front door. It represents Lewis to most. But, it represents a lot more than just a name.
Valentine's Day-- let me tell you. For the last 3 years, we've been broker than Al Roker. We've exchanged cards and little things. Today, I woke up and came downstairs to a GORGEOUS bouquet of fresh flowers on the counter! And, KUDOS to my Jay- NOT ONE ROSE! I think that's my pet peeve about Valentine's Day. I think roses in and of themselves are gorgeous. However, on Valentine's Day, I think they are awfully tacky. Jay got this bouquet full of Gerbera Daisies *my fave*. I think we are going to plan on going out to dinner or something. No exotic getaway to somewhere tropical, no weekend away...just a date. But, not JUST a date. Special time. Time to LAUGH, time to LOVE, time to LISTEN. I'm sure that we're going to have many date-night Valentine's Days. That's part of being parents, I guess. The important thing, the special thing, the LUCKY thing...is that I'm a Lewis the other 364 days of the year. I'm HIS Lewis lady. And, I LOVE that.
I hope you don't get roses and chocolates!!

About Me
- Oak City Books
- Welcome to my blog. It's a dedicated place for my book reviews, criticism, and love of all things bookish. I am a mom of 4 busy kids that uses reading as my, "thing." I find that reading books turns off all (okay, mostly all?) of the noise of my world and lets me get away for a bit. Reading helps me escape the reality of the piles of laundry that will never be done, the dust bunnies that I swear will one day grow legs, and the emails and outlook calendar that occupy my life Monday- Friday during working hours. Reading is therapy for me and always has been. I've always been a big dork, introverted, creative, and reflective. If I won the lottery tomorrow, I'd probably open up a used bookstore with my standard poodle somewhere on the side of the mountain and surround myself by others who enjoy passing their time reading. Until then, I'll keep on keeping on. And, I'll settle for reading when I can. Which, I try to fit in as much as possible. Cheers to your busy life and mine, doing the best we can, as often as we can.
