{LOVE}

I {LOVE} Valentine's Day. I love showering the people I love with a little extra {LOVE) This year I had to be a little more low key and unfortunately it wasn't low key enough for the contractions. Anywho, I heart attack my kids doors every year. This year to my surprise our bedroom door got heart attacked. It almost made me cry. I love that Emma is so thoughtful. She cut out her own hearts and did it all by herself without me even knowing. She is pretty sneaky. I was able to go to the school for Emma's Valentine's party. It was a lot of fun. Then I ran over to Ellie's class to take some pictures for the yearbooks I am doing for her class. They were having a great time when I got there. I felt bad because I couldn't make it to JJ's. Elsie kept asking why we didn't go to JJ's class. The problem was they parties were all at the same time. When Elsie and I got home we hurried and heart attacked the kids doors and frosted the cookies we made the night before. I bought them pink drinks and conversation hearts. We sat at the table and only talked with our conversation hearts. It was actually really fun. Grandpa John came by to see the kiddo's. That afternoon we headed out and heart attacked Mama and Papa, and Tara, Jeff, and Mac. The kids love doing this. (minus Ellie because she refused to come.) When we got home it was pretty late so we had Subway for dinner. The kids just knew that Mama and Papa would be coming to leave a Valentine so the were spying on our porch. They didn't come, didn't come, didn't come and the kids gave up. They all went about their business and then there was a knock on our door. The kids were so excited to open the door and get there teddy bears, cookies, and cards (book for JJ not a teddy bear) It is always fun for them to have that special time with Mama and Papa on Valentines.

That night after we got the kids to bed Jeron and I went to a movie. At Christmas Santa had forgotten to get Jeron his favorite chocolates and so I made up for it with a pile next to his cookie. When I went to the store they were all out and I was totally bummed until I found the last register with the ones he likes. He didn't get a pink drink though he got a diet coke. I hope that our families all know just how much we {LOVE} them. Happy Valentine's Day.
