Valentine's Day 2014

That special day for lovers and little kids who love candy has rolled around once again.  Sam worked on his Valentine's all by himself this year.  And might I add, valentines for kids have come a long way since I was exchanging them in school.  They all come with candy or tattoos or some other super fun trinket.  He slapped some cute stickers on skittles packs and called it a hit.  

The kids' teachers got "I love you because" magnet boards and dry erase markers, so they could write love notes back and forth with their loved ones and post them on the fridge at home.  Sam and Lucy started with the first note about what they love most about each of their teachers.  My son's tech addiction was in full exposure seeing as how almost all his "love notes" were about letting him play with iPads.  Gotta love him.

Cupid brought valentines for all my loves and left them on the table for them to find.

Lucy knew she was cute in her new V-day outfit.

Sam and Daddy had Valentine's day breakfast together, complete with heart-shaped pancakes.

And me, well I'm a very blessed lady to get one of these for Valentine's day…
a heart-shaped lego valentine.  Be jealous.
Truth be told, I also go some new Pandora bling, a home-cooked steak dinner, and a new box of girl scout cookies.  What more could a girl ask for?

Happy Heart Day!

Little man had a special Valentine's Day surprise waiting on him when he woke up this morning.  Kimmie and Pawpaw and Uncle Drew sent some sweet Valentine cards.  Mo brought Sam his very first box of chocolates.  And, since Momma is a reading teacher, Sam got a book too.  Surprise, surprise.

I had also been saving these super great t-shirts for just such a day as Valentine's Day.  These "Love Big" t-shirts were a fundraising event to help our friends, The Brown Family, bring home their newest member from Korea.  We are praying hard and loving big for you guys, today!  
Hurry home Nell!

By the time my little valentine made it home from school and library day, he smelled just like a cupcake, had blue lips from his most recent sucker, and had a bunch of sweet valentines to show off from his buddies at school.  I think he's a big fan of Valentine's Day.
