Valentine's Day Mommy Style

                          Oh Valentines Day  I hate you! Let me count the ways!

1. tearing the kids cards apart
2. the little stickers/tattoos yeah they suck too
3. the treat bags
4. the annoying room mom & her damn notes
5. The annoying room mom with her super cute & crafty snacks
6. Oh did I mention the ANNOYING ROOM MOM..
7. Having to send overpriced balloons to your 7 yr old because all the other mom's are
8. The agony fun of watching your kid filing out all 23 cards  
9. Your choice
10. The stress of Valentines with a 5 & 7 year old who for some reason think that a fairy-cupid is going to bring us treat, hang hearts on our house and presents too.

Let me tell you they were let down. Yes we bought them both a balloon, a small toy and 2 new outfits, yes our kiddos are spoiled. My little princess even got a single red rose from daddy. But you know what I may bitch & complain about it but the excitement that comes of my babies on a holiday make all the crazy before hand so worth it.

For me the yearly dozen roses, box of cookies and dinner out at our favorite Mexican place. My hubby got an amazing home made pie. We have somehow let the holiday of lovers turn into another kid day..
