Table for Eight

True Love: Lu and Zu babysitting yesterday. (They made the homemade mobile--all different textures, colors, a bell). I really really do LOVE Valentine's Day!  Oddly, I don't remember liking it so much as a kid--primarily because I think there's a lot of pressure to have a "sweetheart" (even in gradeschool) AND because I always dreaded the school candy or carnation exchange/fundraiser. You know the one I'm talking about? You can send your friends a carnation during the school-day for a dollar (red, pink or white in color? I'm anti-carnation to THIS day as a result of those yearly carnation exchanges.). Anyway, I think it's an idea that has its heart in the right place, but inevitably I think it makes some people feel left out. AND I think it pressures kids into giving gifts to people they may not feel all that strongly about. Phew, now that I got that off my chest, back to my point! *jumps off soapbox* I really like all that Valentine'...
