A Happy Hearts Day

From my box of chocolates picked out by Sis because it's one of her favorite phrases

We had a delightful, if low-key, Valentine's Day.  There were cards--penguin for Bud, "Thumb Bunny" for Sis, an otter for me, cat, hedgehog, and panda for Mama--and little tokens of affection--a book of hearts, Pokemon cards, and a box of chocolates.  They finished taping the candy to their class valentines on the off chance they got to go to school today, which they did excitedly.  We have more cards at home--for grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins--belated but well-intentioned.  Besides, my grandmother would say that the best holidays are the ones you stretch out.
