My Valentines


While I don't love this Holiday to much (mainly because I think we should spend time telling others that we love them as much as possible intsead of having a designated day for it) I do love that my kids have gone out of their way to be nice to me and each other. This morning I was greeted by Austin at 5:30 am ; ) with yogurt and grapenuts. Kaytlin came in shortly after with a treat from her valentine box with a note that said "I am proud that your my mom" and when trent finally made it out of bed at around 9 he gave me a green heart that said "Mom, I love you with all of my heart" in French. So while I gripe about it every year, I am once again reminded that I need to quit being so grown up and see life through the eyes of my children.
