Even though Valentine's day is typically an American thing, it is clear that the Micronesian students are glad to celebrate it. The Student Council (AKA StuCo) sold "candy grams" as a fund raiser. I sent them to 3 of my favorite people. Joel, Amelia, and Micah. For the girl students I made my own candy treats with a valentine. The boys were sad that I did not make them for them as well. I told them my rule. No valentines for boys I am not related to or dating.... (with an occasional exception for a well established long standing friendship - although I didn't explain that part).
I actually got a Candy gram from my "little sister" Crystalene and from "Unknown"..... Hmmm... I have my guesses.... but so far no one fessed up. One student even bought me a carnation which was a fun surprise to find it on my message board.
Hollie and Aaron (Mr. Hottie - see post in August?) came to campus for the evening devotion and shared their very exciting story about how God brought them together. They also brought sugar cookies for everyone shaped like hearts which they made together.
All in all it was a good day.
Overall it was a pretty nice day.

So wait - how did God bring Hollie and Hottie together?
Did you get the Valentine snow pics?
Unfortunately I don't think I could do the Hollie and Mr. Hottie Story Justice by telling it -
but they met and got engaged in just four weeks. They were married and in Guam less than a year later.
I got the Valentine Snow pics. Thanks. Very Cute.
