Valentine’s Day was a multiple day celebration in our home.
It started last week with special valentine’s in the mail from Grandma, Grandpa and the kids. (Please excuse the random clothes and hair in the video . . . they saw the gifts and just had to open them right away!)
On Sunday, a few plans were made in the car on the way home from church . . . First, Molly asked if she could share her heart candies with Jesus. I love the mind of a 3 year old as she is figuring out who God is. Next Sage asked what God thought about Valentine’s Day. That of course made for a great discussion in the car on the way home from church! So for our devotions on Valentine’s Day morning, we glued some verses about love on hearts and we read them and talked about them as we hung them up around the house.
On actual Valentine’s Day, Sage came out of her room with a Valentine she had made the night before in bed for me. (Cute!) Tom had gotten the girls some flowers and we had a few other little Valentine things for them as well, sitting on the dining room table. They were most excited about the flowers from Daddy though! Sage and Molly then went into the garage and brought out flowers and chocolate for me. They were so excited to give them to me. It was adorable!! (Thanks Tom for taking time to do that in the midst of a crazy weekend at work!)
Sage had a great time at school handing out valentines and then of course looking at all of the ones she received when she got home. Molly wanted to give out valentines to her friends as well, so her friends in Puggles will be getting some special Valentine shortbread cookies on Wednesday night.
Tom had to work on Valentine’s Day, as it is such a busy day in a restaurant, so we celebrated with him today. The girls made him lots of homemade valentines and had picked out some cologne for him. Then we had a Valentine’s Day Tea for lunch today before Sage went to school.
Here are a few pictures . . .
Getting ready for our tea party! (Notice the beautiful flowers from Tom and the girls on the table.)
Tom and I are celebrating this evening together and we are looking forward to it!!

what a great Valentine’s Day (or Days) you had. Those cookies you all made look so good. I love your idea of the bible verses on the hearts and the paper hearts you put on the bathroom mirror. So fun to celebrate the holidays with kids and even more fun to celebrate Valentine’s Day with 3 little girls. What girl doesn’t like Valentine’s Day right?
