Well, today was a much better day. Thank goodness. I was wondering if we were going to make it!
Kambree came in to sleep with me part way through the night and then shortly after Michael made it in. He was so funny. He had totally rationalized a story on his way down the stairs. He was all "it's a different reason this time. I had a dream that I got lost from you and I just love you so much!" That kid sure knows how to sucker his mom!
We got up, did chores and took the kids to school. It was a nicer day today, weather wise, but still wet and we did get some showers off and on throughout the day.
I took Blake to preschool, he was so excited for his Valentines party. While he was at school Kambree and I headed to Albertsons so I could get the kids a gift for Valentines Day. It was a nice surprise to hear from you while we were there. I've really missed talking to you during the day. Thank you.

Then I took Kambree to dance (she was so insistent about taking her teacher a gift - because the other kids were, so I let her get in on the action and take her teacher a gift. She was SO excited and ran right into dance to give it to her.) and I ran to get some fabric to make her a new nightgown.

Then we went to pick up Blake. He had lots of fun at his party and was especially excited about all the treats he came home with.(He was sweet and shared a lot with Kambree.)
Then I cleaned, I got quite a bit done and the kids played upstairs, it was nice.
At about two we headed to help in Carsons class. I was in charge of the craft.

This little creature, love bugs, is what we made. The kids all liked it and I think they turned out cute. Blake and Kambree were kind of a handful while we were there, but I let them play on the playground right outside Carsons classroom door and that helped.

After the little party they passed out treats. Carson gave Davi the little Valentine he got her and she gave him one. This is it.

Wow Davi sure got ripped off! I felt kind of bad for her.
We picked up Michael, who had also enjoyed his Valentines parties and headed home. We had a very relaxed afternoon. None of the kids wanted to play with friends, they all just hung out at home and explored their loot. It was nice!

Kambree fell asleep around five which made the night that much easier.
We had pink heart pancakes for dinner. The kids liked that, Blake even had two huge servings.

Then I worked on Kambrees nightgown. I was kind of spacey at one point and sewed the sleeve into the armpit, instead of the top of the arm. So I had to unpick the whole thing, but other than that it went smoothly and I think it turned out cute and the neck line is much better.

It was nice to talk to you tonight. It sounds like things are a little boring, I hope they pick up fast! I know you and you don't do slow paced. Other than that it sounds like it's going pretty good. I wish we were there for you to come home to. I am sure that would make it a little better, but I'm glad Kurtis and Jenny are making you feel at home!
We love you and are really missing you. I'm glad your coming home in two weeks instead of three. For some reason that seems more do-able to me. I love you and I'll talk to you tomorrow.
