tokens of love

I like Valentines Day. Not because I am a romantic or I expect expensive jewelry, I just like the day. I like the red/pink combo. you see all over the stores and I especially like it because my soon to be 6 year old’s birthday is the 15th (he was my late Valentine!).
I also like this day because it brings out the “homemade” in people. Cards, candies, thoughtful gestures making people feel special. I don’t even expect anything from my husband- although a card is nice.
I know some people hate it. Thinking it’s a “Hallmark” holiday, but it’s a nice diversion in the middle of winter for me.
Anyway, I made these little necklaces for my kids- to wear close to their hearts knowing I always love them. I also plan to make little pillows for their beds and maybe some chocolates to share!
Have a Happy Weekend- I know I will, now that I feel MUCH MUCH better!
