It came to my attention that Jessee was having a linky party yesterday--fourteen things you love. And that I'd missed it. So I asked permission to join today, if I did fifteen things I love.
I decided on fifteen things I loved about yesterday. In no particular order, here goes:
1. Lily's valentine box. Isn't it darling? And I can't BELIEVE she didn't win any of the seven prizes. Seriously? Time for a recount.
2. Making sugar cookies. Mmmmm.
3. Delivering sugar cookies to a few of the widowed people in our neighborhood.
4. Pink heart chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.
5. Micah's comment upon seeing said pink heart chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast: "Cookies! For breakfast?"
6. Take-out from Pei Wei and lunch with a great friend. Thanks, Lori.
7. Hyrum's first Valentine exchange. With only five kids in his Joy School class, he had all the candy gone by noon.
8. Having all of Hyrum's candy gone by noon.
9. Hyrum sharing his candy with Evie, and worrying that she might choke on SpongeBob conversation hearts. She didn't.
10. Flowers and a sweet card from my main valentine. I love how mushy valentine's cards when you're newly married morph into the "life-with-you-is-what-I-always-dreamed-of" valentines.
11. Roast for dinner. On a Monday.
12. Extended silly (and extremely slobbery) kisses from my two littlest boys, preceded by the shout, "Happy Valentine's Day!" (and Ben's disgust at this PDA)
13. Evie's little pointed finger, followed by a wave. This means, "Take me outside. Now is the only option."
14. 78 degrees.
15. Texts from Provo (and a hilarious blog post) and texts from Rexburg (and a package).
Not your traditional Valentine's day, was it? I loved it. Hope you survive sugar withdrawal today.
Linking up to Jessee's blog, of course. And to the happiness project.
