Valentine's Day

We don't celebrate Valentine's day in a big way around here. I don't really know why, we just never have. We did go to a concert tonight and had a young couple come and babysit J. He likes this couple, especially the young man, and was so excited that someone was coming just to spend time with him. He just waved good bye to us and got busy with the video games. He "taught" them to play skip bo so we don't know if they learned correctly. Things can get lost in translation with him and he may tend to slant things his way. He did win. Thank you C and S!

On the way home from church today he announced to us that he had pink coconuts. He was eating a donut. I don't know where your mind went but we laughed at his announcement.

A's boyfriend sent her flowers for her birthday/Valentines day all the way from South Korea. He had left money and instructions with A's friend E when he was here at Christmas time and E was able to keep the secret (which she was very proud of). The funniest part of this story is that T did the same thing for me 24 years ago when he was in Haiti and I was in WI. Only he left the money with his aunt. How cool is that?! You're good men, C and T.

Well, it looks like we're in for more snow tonight. Even J has said he doesn't want any more snow because it's too cold. Sigh...this is the winter that never ends. At least the kids were already off tomorrow anyway. I hope it's gone by Tuesday morning. I'll keep you posted.
