Be Mine, Valentine!



One of my favorite parts about having kids is getting to do all of the fun stuff I loved to do as a kid...again! Remember the feeling of excitement around getting and receiving Valentine Cards? I remember decorating a shoebox with my name, tin foil, and hearts, putting a slit on top,  and using that as a mailbox. Then all of the classmates would walk around and dispense some version of a boxed valentine inside. 

Isabel's class is doing a Valentine Exchange tomorrow. I was ambitious and bought blank cards and envelopes, stickers, and these markers (now that was a trip down memory lane the smells haven't changed in 30 years)! After five cards she was bored (we had 14 to do)...we did a few each night and are finally finished. Next years it's the boxed version for us!
