Holiday love! Doesn't matter the holiday....I love them all! I realize that I want to make each holiday special for my kids and want to give them traditions and memories to hold onto as they grow older. So this year I tried to do a few extra things.
I volunteered to help with Jacob's Valentines party in his classroom and somehow I was put in charge of it! We made little bags with heart shaped eyes, nose and mouth, made HEART bingo and passed out treats. It was fun and I think the kids had a great time! It was great to see Jacob in his class with his friends and I love that he runs to give me a hug when he sees me at school! And to top it all off- he made me a special valentine too! I almost cried because I was so surprised!
For our family Valentines celebration we dressed in red, went to the new Krispy Kreme, went to Anthem park, gave little valentines gifts and cards, had heart shaped macaroni and cheese and let the boys have a "sleepover" in the game room!
The favorite gift of Valentine's day was the M&M's that said "I love Randy, I love Jonathan, I love Jacob and I love JOJ" Not sure they loved the socks or books I got them but the M&M's were a hit!
And of course we got cookies! Lisa brought us all heart shaped cookies to share! They were super yummy too!
We are all loved in this house and I enjoyed sharing the simple things with my boys! I am so lucky to have them all in my life and I hope they realize how loved they are after this Valentines day!
