This is an odd Valentine's Day. Usually there is much indecision over what kind of Valentines to make or buy, fretting (for the older daughter) over whom to give them to, and fussing over pink and red ensembles and accessories. This morning, not so much of that. Meredith, 11, made one Valentine, for her best friend, and Olivia, 15, is not giving Valentines at all, only hoping that a special someone will look her way in a certain way. "Only." Meredith did leave here in a flurry of pink. But aside from that, no fuss. Except for me, of course, I've bought them candy treats (ssssshhhhh) and am wearing my sparkly pink rhinestone heart earrings (with golden bows, no less) that my best friend gave me back in the '80s. And of course, there's the blog.
I promised Kim of Daisy Cottage that I would make her a vintage fabric heart, and this is as far as I got. But I promise you, Kim, I will finish and send it to you.
See? It's odd, spending time on a Valentine for a friend I've never met. And yet, I'm having so much fun with this blog (and must thank Kim for all the referrals). And, to my "real life" friends who haven't heard from me--I haven't forgotten you. I will be in touch. There is much to talk about and share. Love to all of you.
oooooooooooooooh!
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
it is going to be sooooo CUTE!!!
I LOVE IT!
Can't wait to get my very special heart from YOU!
Happy Valentine's Day!!
xo,
Kim

Happy Valentines day to one of my favorite bloggers! Sad to say I bought Disney Princess valentines for Zoe to give to her friends. :) Maybe I can a little more creative with her as she gets older! Your fabric hearts are so pretty!
