happy v-day!

My sister-in-law is a part of a home school group and yesterday I hosted a valentine's party for the preschool/kindergarten aged kids in her group. It was a lot of fun! We did sugar cookies, a game, exchanged valentines and then visited with the mom's while the kids played. It was low-key, but I had a good time doing it. I am really interested in homeschooling Ana, especially for her first few years.

Most years, Dave and I haven't really done much for V-day. Our first one, we just went out for milk shakes, and since then we've usually gone out to eat or something like that. But this year, I'm totally feeling the Spirit. I've been leaving Dave a valentine every day this week, and its been fun to try to think of little things he would enjoy. This morning I made pink, heart-shaped (or more like blob shaped) pancakes. Last night Dave and I had a nice night in, and tonight we're going out with some friends. Its been a really fun time for me.


Now, I just want to say that I LOVE my husband! I think he's handsome, smart and sensitive. He works hard so I can stay home, he fulfills his church callings, even when inconvenient, he reads his scriptures and prays, and strives to be led by the Spirit. He is such a good Dad and I know that he loves us all so much. Thanks, Dave for all you are! Happy Valentine's Day.

p.s. I really liked my wedding dress. I wish I could wear it more than once!
