My mom sent our kids Valentines. She sent some from my dad too but either my dad's handwriting has changed or I'm suspicious that she signed his name.
She is a very inclusive person. My mom gathers people in her wings regardless of their age. Or regardless of their status as living or made of metal apparently. She sent Horace a Valentine too.

| It made Mark's day and I think that's what my mom was going for. |
I think they really bonded when we took him to Nauvoo.

I love my mom.
We got envelopes full of Valentine cards from cousins. Seeing my nieces' and nephews' handwriting made me happy. I am afraid they are smarter than most kids. No offense.

I got a homemade Valentine from my friend Apryl. She sends me one every year. It is the great desire of my heart to live in the same cul-de-sac in heaven as she does.
I read an email from a dear friend while I was in the lobby of the YMCA, waiting for Mark who was at his homeschool P.E. class. It made me cry, right there in the lobby of the YMCA. I don't know why I am such a ninny (although I blame my dad who doesn't sign his own Valentines). It was the kind of email that assures you that the world is a wonderful place full of wonderful people.
We feasted like kings.

I love the Valentines, they are adorable. Your mom is so sweet to include your pet. I know Maddy and Guinness think they are human and need to be included (they get to open thier presents first on Christmas) so I am sure Horace feels the same way.
Your pie looks A.MA.ZING!! How was it? Kelly loves cherry pie and I have been looking for a receipe. It looks like the boys did a great job with dinner too. Your kids are lucky to have 2 parents who are so talented in the kitchen.
Happy Valentine's Day!!!
Sumptuous feast! I love you!
PS: Did I tell you Marcos writes with his left hand?
