A quick post before I head off to Target to procure supplies. I was inspired by one of my fav blogs The Mother Load written by my brilliant friend Heather. She is putting on a "14 days of Valentine's" for her kids. I figured though it's starts tomorrow, since it's only 14 days as opposed to 25 days like Christmas I could pull this off.
I pulled some ideas from her blog and another one that I Googled, We Love Being Mommies.
Here is my quick list in case you feel like throwing this together. My first one is $$$ which you probably have laying around the house. You could do this. And, as my Brilliant friend Heather says, my kids will be shouting from the rooftops how awesome a childhood they have. Or at least I'll redeem myself from today when I so meanly forced Thing 1 to help me sort laundry and had both Thing 1&2 pick up their toys from the family room.
Happy Pre-First day of "14 Days of Valentines"! :)
