Valentine's Day

As a mother I know that this day is more about candy and parties at school for my kids.  As a wife I know that this day is just like any other day for my husband and he's just trying to get through it.  So, I do my best to make it special for my family.  Every year I get those little (cheap) heart boxes of chocolates for my kids.  Tony gets a favorite candy and a card, and I do my best to make a special dinner for the family.  This year it was Lasagna, Bread Sticks, Salad, Sparkling Cider, and chocolate covered strawberries.  Yummy!  It's one of the few meals that I don't get a whole bunch of complaining and that's always nice.      

 The kids getting ready to eat.  I was very happy that Tony made it home just in time to eat dinner with us.  With school and work we don't always get to eat together, so I enjoy it when we do.  
 Chocolate covered strawberries.  Need I say more?  
Tony always gets a rose for me and one for Alaina.  I love that this daddy does something special for his little girl on Valentine's Day!  The kids also got candy hearts.

All in all I'd say it was a pretty good day.
