Happy Valentine's Day

We had a great Valentine's Day. Molly greeted us in her red, pink, frilly get-up and wanted me to take a millions pictures of her from all angles. When I went to her classroom that afternoon to help with the Valentine's Party, her teacher commented on her corsage. Evidently, Molly put the corsage that David had given her for the Father/Daughter Dance in her backpack and wore it all day at school. She is my girlie girl!
Lindsey didn't want her picture taken at all and only agreed if Gabriel, the new foster dog could be in the picture with her. She was happy to wear red and was so excited about passing out Valentine's to her classmates.

Molly and Lindsey's class are Book Buddies together and their classes made Valentine's for those people that could use some extra love. I took Molly, Lindsey and Ann Ryan to a nursing home to deliver their classes hand-made Valentine cards and to give a flower to each of them as well. The patients really enjoyed the visit from the girls and the girls would like to go back and read to them. It makes me happy that Molly and Lindsey have teachers that are teaching the children about caring for others and reaching out to those in need. It was a beautiful day so we were in the yard playing. Molly and Lindsey rounded the corner with the pooper scooper and the trashcan and told me that for Valentine's they were going to clean up the yard for me. Molly declared, "Hey, I'm really good at this." Hoping there are many more days that they want to clean up the yard for me. :)

For our Valentine's meal, we had heart shaped grilled cheese and the girls wanted to eat in the dining room. They set the table and decorated for the occassion. They wanted to dress as princesses for dinner so David and I dined with Cinderella and Snow White.


It was a great day. I do love all three of my Valentines very much. I am a very lucky mom/wife.
