Feel the Love

Valentines Day.

I told my kids that was the next exciting day headed our way. Grace wanted to know more about it. I told her it is all about love and that everyone gives cards, treats, flowers, etc to all the people that they love. I told her it's when we celebrate all the great people in our lives that we love and that they love us. I told her there would be lots of heart and red and pink. She liked it so far.

"Grace, who do you love?"

"Well...I love you, and daddy and Rocky and Gma and Gpa and James...James  Nielson...and James and Harrison, and Sophie, and uncle Jay, and ...well...I just love everybody!"

"Well that's good to love so many people."

"I want to give them all those things, mom."

"What things?"

"the cards and flowers and candy. and then they can give it to me too."

"We'll see what we can do about that...."

later on....I asked Rocky...

"rocky, do you love me?"

"Yeh, I love you mom." he paused for awhile...."And I love Daddy and Gracie too. oh..and Mickey. Mom, I love Mickey."

"That's a good thing to love, little bud."

He then cuddled with his Mickey Mouse while watching mickey mouse clubhouse (he's sick...hanging out on the couch the last few days) Too cute.

So I think I will really try to do some fun things for Vday this year. With the kids and with the hubster. I am excited. This really is a time to let those whom you love know that you love them. Because even though sometimes we say "oh they know already." they don't always. And even if they do - who doesn't like a little bit of love shown to them?

I'm feelin' it this year. I'm excited.

Loves.
