Anna's door when all was said and done.
Noah's door by the end.
Shame on me for not taking a picture of the sweet Valentine surprises Josh picked up for all of us. We don't put a lot of energy into the event that is Valentines Day, but Josh sure put a smile on the kids' faces with the balloons and little surprises he left out for them. I even got some chocolates to enjoy. :) Chocolate is always welcome here.
On the actual Valentine's Day, the kiddos and I grabbed a couple sweet surprises for Josh on our way home from a fun little Valentines Bash with a homeschool group we are a part of. Noah and Anna had a real blast!
And we wrapped up the night with a new favorite board game. This week, as I tried not to dwell on how annoying the forced ritual of Valentines Day is, I also couldn't help but smile deep down to know how full my heart is on a daily basis for so many little, everyday things.
So thankful for these people and these times. I will take my EVERY day moments over Valentine's Day fuss ANY day of the year. Blessed!

I did the same the thing with the hearts no the door….and my girls were the same way. Every.single.night. after the FIRST heart, they wanted to be assured there'd be a new heart no their door the next morning. It was such fun! and I wish I had taken a picture of their door too!
Only my girls…rearranged their hearts almost every morning…so they didn't stay pretty and in the place I put them…oh well. They drank in the words from Mommy and Daddy, and that's really all that matters :) I will do this again next year too.
Noah wants to know why we can't keep the hearts going after Valentine's Day. Ha! I guess I will have to find another fun way to keep pouring the kind words on thick. :}
