Hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day! That being said, remember, it's not about how you treat your mate on Valentine's but, rather, how you treat that person the other 364 days of the year.

Quickly, some exciting news. Rockwall's own, Jason Castro, made it to the Top 24 on American Idol--not that I pay that much attention to reality television . . . Ha! Our family always watches Idol, especially the audition weeks. Back to Jason. He's the one with the long dreadlocks that--if you didn't blink--you might have seen on a few audition shows. (Unfortunately, his talent has yet to be showcased.) Jason plays and sings regularly at our home church, Lake Pointe in Rockwall, and his talent oozes out of every pore. Plus, he's just a good kid who chooses to honor Christ in all he does. His mom, Betsy, and I have been on several ladies' retreats together; pray for her also during the upcoming weeks.

Finally, please, please vote for him when the time comes. It's J-a-s-o-n C-a-s-t-r-o!
