When did Valentine's Day get bigger than Halloween? This is a small sample of the loot that came home with me today. There were no less than 50 valentines per boy, some from the morning classes and some from the afternoon. Mason had a shoebox and three bags of stuff. There was all manner of goodies; pencils, playdoh, heart-shaped slinkys, feathers (?) cups, stickers and the ever-popular tattoos. And candy, of course. So much candy that it rivaled our Halloween take, even taking into consideration the stuff that I scarfed before we got home.
Ashton will never know!
I enjoyed reliving the fun of Pop Rocks with Mason, but the in-school parties were junk fests. Our "lovey-dovey day salad" made with all red fruits and pink yogurt was probably a tough sell next to cookies and heart-shaped jell-o jigglers. No wonder they were less than enthusiastic about the valentines day books I bought for them. Sheesh!
I feel a bellyache coming on.
