Love is in the air

Next week is Valentine's Day and both the kids need to bring Valentine's to class. We had a lazy day today so after a trip to Walmart and some play time outside Caden decided he was ready to fill his out. Paige made hers last week along with her Valentines box.(which I forgot to take a picture of). Paige opted to get Scooby Doo ones with suckers. Caden let me know that he needed boy ones for the boys and girl ones for the girls so I let him pick two different kinds. He chose spy ones for the boys that were really neat with decoders and a secret message and animal ones for the girls. He also wanted to put them all together by himself. Usually I would let him write his name and then assemble them myself to make sure they were put together nice and neat. But he is getting bigger so I let him do it. He took it very seriously and he did a great job.

He made them all but one and asked me to help make a girl in his class a special one. Here we go, I thought. Lol. I asked him why he wanted to make her a special one and he said she was his best girl friend and he wanted her to be his Valentine. Then he asked me what it meant to be someone's Valentine. I just told him it was someone you thought was extra special. Yup, that's Annabel he said. But that doesn't mean I want to hold her hand or marry her. Whew!! Lol

He had the idea already planned out. He asked me to make a paper heart chain and he would do the rest. The picture bellow is the finished product. I have no idea where he got the idea or where he has even seen a paper heart chain before. When I asked him he just told me he thought of it in his head.

Love (or at least Like) is in the air for sure!
