was going to church this morning to get her “ashes”.  :O)

What a glorious Valentine’s Day it was outside today!  The sun was shining, the birds were singing and the temperature was just shy of 60 degrees.  A heat wave!  I enjoyed some morning Valentine’s Day errands with my littlest one as we made our way through aisles of chocolate hearts, red balloons of all shapes and sizes, irresistable stuffed bears, and unending bunches of bright red roses and beautiful spring flowers.  It was delightful!… until around 1:00 when suddenly, the wind kicked in, the skies turned gray and it became February once again.  But afterall, it IS commonly cold and snowy this time of the year, so today was a true blessing.   

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY TO YOU, AND MAY HEAPS OF HUGS AND KISSES FILL YOUR HOME TONIGHT!

 Oh my gosh, did I really just quote a song from The Lawrence Welk Show???  Does that mean I am REALLY getting old???  Well, that’s the song that came to mind when I was getting ready to post this picture, so my fingers were the ones doing the talking.  Our little one got her new “big girl” bed a couple weeks ago and is love, love, loving it!  And not only does she love sleeping in it, she even “MADE IT” today after she awoke from her nap.  Shocking, I know!  Never in a million years would I have thought a two-year-old would know how to make a bed, but she did, and she did an amazing job at that!
