Valentine's Day 2012

Dear Abigail,

Happy Valentine's Day!!!! You are and always will be my sweet, sweet Valentine! This year you really had a grasp on the holiday and told everyone Happy Valentine's Day! You also learned that giving hugs and kisses to all the people you love was what you did on the V day, so, of course, Kate got lots and lots of kisses today!!!

We had a fun filled day including opening presents this morning (you got a cupcake maker and 2 pretty pink books!!), then we went to your school Valentine's Day party where you had lots and lots of sweets and other goodies...

(You, Adelynn and Miss Whitney!)
(Miss Whitney getting her kisses!!)

Then, you and Kate had a nice nap in the car (Mommy's special treat!!) and then we met Daddy at the Indian restaurant for a romantic, okay, well, a yummy dinner! You even tried Mommy's dinner, but it was a bit too spicy for you so you stuck with the mac and cheese I brought!!

BUT, the funniest thing we did today was the "Things I Love" list! So Mommy tried this back when it was your 3rd birthday, but all you'd say was "nuffin", which was very aggravating for me SO I put it on the back burner and decided till your next birthday. BUT, then I thought, let's make a Valentine's thing! I mean, it is a list of questions about all the things you love, right?!!! Oh, did I mention that part yet? So, yeah, I asked you a bunch of questions about the things you love, and you told me your answers. You were super excited about it too, and I think the answers are a little funny, but here goes...

1. What is your favorite color? PINK! (of course it is!!!)

2. What is your favorite toy? Woody

3. What is your favorite fruit? Pineapple (didn't think this was it, but hey, that's what you said!)

4. What is your favorite TV show? Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (no question about this!)

5. What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch? Peanut Butter and Jelly (another obvious response!)

6. What is your favorite outfit? Arial (i have no clue what this means, maybe your arial shirt... Daddy would be thrilled as he bought it for you, against Mommy's wishes!)

7. What is your favorite game? Angry Birds (yeah, did NOT see that one coming. First off, I wasn't thinking you'd think of a game on the IPad and second, I don't think you play this game!! Again, though, your response!)

8. What is your favorite snack? Goldfish!

9. What is your favorite animal? An Elephant. (yeah, Daddy would not be happy about that, but Aunt G and Uncle Bubba would! I think it was because Kate had an outfit with an elephant on, but again, your answers!)

10. What is your favorite song? Shooting Stars (Now, this made me laugh. This is the song titled "Airplanes " by B.O.B. Yes, that's right. And man alive do you love this song!)

11. What is your favorite book? The Cow Loves Cookies

12. Who is your best friend? Mommy! (swear to goodness you said that! I was really thinking Ellie or Clara Lee or even Chloe would make the list, or maybe even your real BFF Sarah, so when you said Mommy I immediately wrote it down and moved on, with a smile!)

13. What is your favorite cereal? Mommy's cereal and Abby's cereal. (I'm guessing we'll still be calling this in 10 years, but just in case, Mommy's cereal is granola and Abby's is the baby Oatmeal, yep, the kind you eat when you are 5 months old. Yep, you still eat it. Every morning. With Mommy's cereal. We don't ask...)

14. What is your favorite thing to do outside? Play on the park

15. What is your favorite drink? milk
