I decided that we (we meaning me) were going to make super cute Valentine's for Jacob's class. Then Jacob's teachers suggested that we send Valentine's for the morning class in addition to just the afternoon class that Jacob was in. All the students, plus all the teachers, plus the bus helpers, plus Jacob's speech therapist and we (I) had a lot of Valentine's to make.

| Jacob attached most of the eyes and even wrote his name on the back of some of them |
Besides the Valentine's for Jacob to give to people, I decided that the rest of the day would be very low key - Justin wouldn't be getting home from work until it was time to take Jacob to soccer practice so it wasn't like we would have time to make it a special day. Plus we had bought a new entertainment console to replace our old, cheap armoire that held our old TV so we had decided that piece of furniture was our Valentine's gifts.
But then Justin had an appointment in the afternoon and he left work early. So I decided (last minute) that we would do a little something special. I made Justin's favorite kind of bouquet for him to eat and some sugar cookie dough so we could do sugar cookies with the kids.

It ended up being a crazy evening anyway because Justin's appointment took longer than we thought so I ended up trying to get the kids to work on the sugar cookies by myself which didn't work out all that well, but at least the boys look super cute.

| Joel loved eating the dough more than any other part of this activity |
The rest of the night was a rush of dinner, soccer practice for Jacob and once the kids were in bed, watching a little TV. We did make time before taking Jacob to soccer practice to give the kids these cute little frog chairs as their Valentine's gifts.
