We do a very low-key Valentine’s Day celebration at our house. As far as we are concerned, treasuring each other and showing our love for one another is a daily activity.
This year we’re doing a handmade card exchange for the youngest member of the family. Although David and I don’t give each other cards (for any occasion, actually; more on this in a moment), we recognize that our daughter would love the giving and receiving aspect of this holiday.
(Instead of cards, David and I exchange phone calls and talk when we’re together. With at least one “I love you” per conversation, everyone in a ten foot radius knows how we feel. You should feel sorry for David’s coworkers. I call him five times a day. Yes, we’re that couple.)
Back to our card-making endeavors, the girls have been taking this card exchange very seriously and we’ve been hard at work.
As you can see, someone continues to teach herself to write. She also can multi-task! Look how she’s holding her baby doll in her baby sling while she writes.
I am not sure which of these two things I feel most proud.
Happy Valentine’s Day! Go buy yourself some chocolate and know that this is just another day regardless of how you spend it.
SO ADORABLE! look at her go with the writing – what a clever little girl she is :) and i don’t think she could be any cuter with her baby in the sling… :)
