Valentine Central...

SPOILER ALERT:  If you are a Teacher or Grandparent this post may include Valentine's you will receive very soon.  Sorry...you can either close your eyes and look later...or look now and enjoy it twice!

For my Patch kids...pencil are a good teacher-y gift, right?  My kids wanted those boxed Valentine's so I caved and got them...and we taped lollipops to them.  I didn't take pictures but...Lightning McQueen graces Lubby's and Emmer got Tinker Bell Fairies.  Sigh...you try to share creativity and sometimes it sticks...oh well.

We made these for their Patch teachers...Emma worked VERY hard on these!  Caleb did the stamps!

We also used our old tissue boxes to make V-day mailboxes.  We got through A LOT of tissues...and DadE thought this was a very funny, frugal use of recyclables. 

Look at her impish face...

...making smiley hearts with her little nail-polished hand!  Hehehe!
