Valentine's Day ~2006~

~Happy Valentine's Day!
The day seems to have caught up with me and I did not get all the homemade Valentine's crafted that I wanted to give to family and friends! {insert sad face} I did, however, get Denny's, Misty's and my parents made so I guess that will have to do.

I was caught up this morning in remembering something from when I was real little and how much fun it was to make those decorated shoe boxes in school to hold all our Valentine's in! Sometimes we covered them in construction paper, glitter, lace doilies and sometimes we made little "mailboxes" out of them, complete with a flag and slot to put the Valentine's in!
I wonder if kids still do that in school or if that is something else that has long since been disgaurded as a 'silly waste of time'?

It seems funny to me now how exciting it was to open up that shoe box and see all the little Valentine's inside from every kid in class including the teacher, but I also remember how happy it made me at the time and it would be amazing to still feel that way as we get older!
