Special Treats

On Valentines Day the children wake up to find a little note and treat at their seat at the table - Smart Food popcorn for Thomas, Chocolate bars for Nolan and Abraham, Smarties for Isaac, and little heart boxes of chocolate for Abby and Sarah.

My sweetheart left me a bar of organic dark chocolate - my favorite.  Just a bit was delicious with my morning coffee.  Mike also brought me home a beautiful single rose - the natural food store had somebody selling them for a fundraiser.

Much of the normal goings on are planned for today - but in addition, Sarah and I are going to embroider hearts on some fabric for napkins, I am going to bake a chocolate cake with pink and red sprinkles (at Abraham's request), and Mike and I are going to enjoy a quiet dinner (well, we will see how quiet it will be....) after the children are done eating and they head upstairs to watch a movie.

Wishing you a day filled with lots of "I Love Yous".

Warm wishes,
Tonya

Hearts and More Hearts

A stuffed heart for our door made from an old skirt and salvaged lace trim.

Sarah's stitched hearts.

I made my love a pillow for our bed of a felted sweater.

My love woodburned this for me on a heart shaped piece of birch.

A special treat of heart pancakes for  breakfast.

There is something about Valentines Day that I enjoy.  It is so much fun to be crafty with hearts and so nice to give everyone a little extra treat on this day.

Warm wishes,

Tonya
