v-day

What a fun and silly holiday. I made all my children homemade Valentine's cards with cutesy paper and hearts.

When I gave it to McKay he whined, "Hearts? Hearts are no fun!" He was quite upset with me.

I thought it was hilarious and so boy-like, but I still took the opportunity to teach him to say "Thank you" even if didn't like the gift. He replied, "I'm going to throw it away."

Spencer got me a Valentine's Day gift. A wheelbarrow! That sums up how we feel about V-day. Use it as an excuse to buy something that we need that's practical. (And we usually take the opportunity to go out to eat and that's always a treat!)
