Valentines

Happy St. Valentine's Day! One thing I really LOVE about motherhood is having a daughter who likes to plan and prepare meals. Today, she wanted to do something special for Valentine's Day: breakfast.

The plan was for heart-shaped fried eggs. But, they did not quite 'pan' out, if you know what I mean, so she did a great job with regular eggs, bacon, cinnamon rolls (not homemade, but very yummy indeed), and fruit. I did help her with some of it. It's just hard to get the hang of making everything ready at the same time.


Everybody was very happy with the results. To make the occasion even brighter, Daddy is working nights this week, so he was home for breakfast. Neither he nor I had yet showered, so we opted out of the photo shoot.

Close up you can see that everybody had a valentine from Miss Lucy at the top of his plate.


I also made these fun, but way-too-sugary treats to go along with the morning festivities. I lifted the idea from someone else, of course.


My sweet husband always remembers to acknowledge special days, big or little, so even though we agreed not to do gifts, he still had 2 cards waiting for me - on the computer where he knew I'd be sure to find them. haha.

Anyway, hope you had a great day!
