Be mine.

It’s late and I am eating chocolate. Valentine’s day is upon us.  Anything that has any health benefits in the cupboard has been replaced with chocolate and luckily, it won’t last long around here.  Thankfully, Valentine’s Day doesn’t constitute a season like Christmas does. It takes only a few days to work off the calories unlike December’s tsunami of a holiday. This year’s edition of the Valentine photo proved no easier to accomplish than past portraits of the kids. However, chocolate saved the shoot as they devoured the contents of the heart shaped box one by one. We learned with a nibble that no one likes strawberry creams except for Miles, who was happy to indulge. Valentine’s day is a Hallmark holiday, and maybe that’s why it seems appropriate to create an old fashioned paper correspondence of the one’s you love. Happy Valentine’s Day to all.
