Happy Valentines Day to all our blog friends! Our Valentines Day celebration started on Thursday night. While I made dinner Henry sat at the table and wrote the names of all of his friends at school and his own name on each of his 21 Valentines. He made his Valentine envelope at school on Monday and, once again, the teachers told to us that he spent the most time of all the kids creating his envelope. He loves art and will spend all of his center time (the time at school when they do art) creating beautiful paintings. He was very excited to get Valentines from his friends at school.
This year we are celebrating by spending the whole day together, doing some of our favorite things-like baking, painting and bike riding. We are starting the day out by letting Papa do one of his favorite things: sleeping in. Henry and I are making heart shaped waffles, fruit and facon-bacon for breakfast...we are hoping the smell of good food will wake our late sleeper. Last night I made Henry a choo-choo train sweatshirt for Valentines Day. Papa gave me a delicious German Chocolate Cake (my favorite). And Papa is getting lots of rest, his favorite dinner and a beautiful painting by Henry.
Yesterday we made cupcakes and cookies...


We hope your Valentines Day is full of sweet treats, warm snuggles, your favorite things, lots of rest and, most of all, that you are surrounded by love. Lot's of love.
