It's such a sweet and unpretentious holiday, don't you think?
I have passed this love of mine down to one of my daughters-she has hung hearts everywhere in the house.
I love it-it makes Feburary much less dreary.
I was "snack mom" so I made Rice Krispie treats because of a allergy issue in Hollis' class..(I won't mention that it took me two hours to cut them in perfect heart shapes and tint them the most Valentiney pink).
50% of the kids ate them.
They said they were too hard. And too pink.
I told them if they ate them, then maybe they would lose a tooth and then the tooth fairy would come.
The tooth fairy can thank me later...
As for Jason and me, we kept it simple this year.
I asked him three nights ago if he had gotten me a card.
"Ummm. no not yet."
I couldn't see his face but I'm sure it resembled a deer in headlights.
"That's ok," I reassured him, "let's not do them this year-I don't want to stand in line at CVS."
That's bad, isn't it?
Maybe we keep things too simple around here.
However simple or complicated a day, we wish you a very Happy Valentines...
I am so glad you clarified because I sat and studied that first picture certain you were going to say that you made the class raw hamburger patties as their treat! Ha ha!
