We enjoy this holiday quite a bit. The girls love choosing valentines for their classmates. They love dressing up for the day.
We love making the day special for them. We had a yummy dinner with lots of red: chunky tomato soup and grilled goat cheese sandwiches packed with sauteed red pepper, red onion and spinach. For dessert - chocolate fondue! The dippers were pineapple, banana, apples, strawberries, marshmallows, bread and pretzels. Joe and Jia's fave dipper was the pretzel. Willa's and mine - pineapple!
Willa asked if we could do it every year. Then at bedtime, she said, "Mama, I want to always remember this Valentine's Day. Will you help me not forgot?" We're glad the girls enjoyed the day so much!
