Toddler Valentines

Today we had a Valentine's Day party with our play group. And, us silly moms even had the kids make little decorated Valentine's Day boxes and exchange Valentine's Day cards. ('Cause you know, we want them to have fun and get in on the holidays too.) Well, Bree and I made her box a few days ahead of time...she had a great time helping me paste the paper on the box and also deciding what colors of construction paper to use and all that. But, predictably, at the party none of the kids could care less about their boxes or their cards, bacause they were all 3 and under. It was kind of sad and funny that the kids ended up running around playing while us moms filed past all the boxes, dropping the themed Valentine's cards that our kids had "picked" and then "personalized." (Bree scribbled on all hers to personalize them.) It sort of made me smirk anyways..although later in the day, after we'd gotten home, had a nap and calmed down, Bree did have a great time looking over all the different pictures and talking about which of her friends names' were on them so, maybe it wasn't a complete act of ridiculousness. :)
