My husband and I have had a really nice week of giving love notes to each other every day. We'll head out for a special dinner tonight.
I also always think of my brother Ed on Valentine's Day, as that's the day when he chose to arrive in this world. What a special Valentine!
Desert Boy's school is having a Valentine's Day Party, and as we are really trying to cut back on processed foods and eat more real foods, I cringe at the thought of all the sugar and chemicals he may be ingesting today. To help make me feel a little better about that, I'm sending some heart-shaped snacks with him (photo above). It might not make much difference, but hopefully the kids will enjoy eating something healthy.
Have a great day! And if you've been wondering why I'm not posting so regularly, I have several posts I'm working on. It's been quite a crazy week, so I'm looking forward to a long weekend to catch up. Maybe we'll manage to fit in an adventure or two (or three!).
In my experience, the kids are actually always happy to munch on fruit (and veggies) especially if they are done up in a fancy way. They seem to get tired of all the sweets, even on a party day.
ReplyDeleteI bet they were enjoyed by all!
