Valentine's Day

Our Valentine's Day consisted of everyone having the flu... so our Valentine's day was a day late this year. Cupid had to wait to come until everyone was healthy. I had our special valentine's breakfast and dinner all planned. I love holidays and making them fun and special for the kids. For breakfast we always have quiches in these heart shaped ramikens and heart shaped blueberry muffins... it's tradition. The kids didn't really realize that it was Valentine's Day and we weren't doing the normal tradition because they were so sick. ( On Friday night, while Eric and I were on our Valentine's date, we got a call from the babysitter that Peyton had woken up and thrown up all over her crib. The kids were helpful in helping her clean in up... and that of course lead to both of them getting sick the next day, and me getting sick on Sunday. ) Finally, by Monday afternoon it was all out of our system. So Cupid came around 1 o'clock in the afternoon, and we had breakfast for lunch to celebrate our be-lated Valentines. The kids were excited to get their little presents from Cupid- Webkins and flash-cards. They didn't care much about the educationcal flashcards, but the Webkins were a hit. Brent kept asking... when did Cupid come, I didn't see him?? Who is cupid mommie? Taylor was sweet and kept our little secret.
