Valentine's Day

 We made homemade Valentine's this year.  Crayons and coloring sheets and little cards.  It was so much fun to do something that they both could help with.

I love Valentine's Day.  I know it is so silly but I can't help it.  This year I decorated the kitchen and living room in hearts and pink and red and had lots of goodies waiting for the kids when they woke up.  But, the most fun thing we did this year was their Valentine's Day parties at school.  Hanging out in Cole's class, with a bunch of 4-5 year old boys, is so totally funny!  They tell the silliest jokes and laugh at everything and talk all at once.  Oh, I wish we could always be so happy!  I loved spending that time with Cole, eating pizza and playing games.  When I felt like I had spent enough time with Cole I headed to Lily's class.  It was a much tamer group of kids who had no idea what the big deal was!  It was cute in its own way and it was sweet to see Lily playing with her friends as well.  I love where they go to school....love their teachers and all that they put into every day.  I am so glad that I was able to share this time with the kids.  I hope they always want me to sit by them and their friends during parties (I can dream right?!).
