heartHappy Valentine’s Day!heart

To my kids, D, M, S & B~ You guys have amazed me from the day each of you were born, and you continue to do so to this day. I am very proud of all four of you for being the intelligent, caring individuals that you are. I’m very lucky to be your mom, and I love you very much!

To T~ On our second Valentine’s Day together, I can honestly say that I love you more now than ever before. You’re the best ’significant other’ and tech support a girl could ever hope for, and I am beyond blessed to have you in my life!

To my blogging friends~ Thank you for all the support, kindness and friendship that you’ve shown me. By reading your blogs and exchanging comments and emails, I feel like I’m getting to know a lot of you, and it’s like I’ve got an extended family out there in the blogosphere!


However you feel about Valentine’s Day, I hope that each of you gets to enjoy the day as you see fit, and I wish that for you everyday.

Happy Valentine’s Day/February 14th!

But, have they ever tried gluing themselves to a piece of furniture to avoid it??

That’s exactly what a 10-year-old boy from Mexico tried according to this news article: “Mexican Boy Glues Self to Bed to Avoid School.”

So, next time our kids whine about vacation being over, be grateful if they haven’t tried what Diego did!

I’m not calling anything I’ve resolved to do my ‘New Year’s Resolutions’ though… They tend to be too quickly forgotten, and, when they are remembered, provide additional, unnecessary guilt!

Here’s to a happy, healthy and prosperous 2008!

With the Holidays fast approaching, it’s been on mind more. I’d love to hear about yours!

Since my first child was born, each year I would either purchase or make an ornament for them for the Christmas tree. The original idea was to give each child their set of ornaments when they moved out. Now I’m not so sure I could part with all those memories!
