For Valentine's day the focus has really shifted from the newly married- romance type of day, so a fun love filled day with our kids. I guess that's what your life turns into almost 8 years into parenting, and you know what I am definitely okay with that. My husband and I firmly believe in creating a happy family life is just as important as having a happy marriage. I mean any weekend can be date night, but it has become so much fun to bring the kids into the love fest.
After school I had this set up all ready to go for them, they walked in the door to a huge bouquet of heart balloons, I mean... what could be better? Along with a table filled with treats and goodies. It was easy going and fun. Just the way I like to parent in a nutshell. With my husband's work schedule he is gone a lot on holidays, and a couple years ago I decided to just go full force and make each holiday the best it could be even if it did end up being just me and the kids. You know what? Life has been infinitely happier since.
