Okay, so I am very bad at keeping up on blogging. It isn't that there aren't enough things going on in our family, actually quite contrary, which is probably why I am so bad about it! But this morning as I was cleaning the much neglected kitchen cabinets, I thought of all the many things we do in our lives that we don't share. There is so much to be grateful for! There has been a period of time that I just figured no one was reading or cared about our blog...but in the end, I have decided that it doesn't really matter. Does it? What matters is that we recognize our blessings and share them with those we love. So I'm starting to do that today. After all, it's somewhat like a scrapbook, wouldn't you say? I thought I'de start with Valentine's day. Here's to those we love!
The boys eating their Valentine cupcakes
Alyssa adding the sprinkles.
See the flowers behind her? For some reason I can't find the picture I took of them. They were my gift from Steve. I gave him a heart full of See's chocolates. Also I was unable to find the picture of the boys Valentines'. It is a tradition to make cards and give them away to one another. The morning of Valentine's day, the children look forward to going into the bathroom and finding a Valentine gift from Mom and Dad sitting on the counter with handmade cards for each one of them. What would life be without traditions? They are something we can count on and look forward to, don't you agree?
