Valentines Cards

My favorite part of Valentine's Day is the cards we do for our kids. Brian and I both buy the kids cards and write them notes about the things we love most about them. I bought some cute Valentine's backpacks from PotteryBarn that we keep all our cards in from every year. I have had the hardest time keeping the kids out of their backpacks all month...they LOVE this tradition!
We did our cards when we got home from dinner. This year we both bought everyone music cards, so they had to dance when they opened their cards:-) Then they stand up and let us read our card aloud in front of everyone.
Ella waiting patiently while she continues to apply lipgloss:-)
Port (our crazy dancer) might love this tradition the very most! He could hardly wait for his turn to receive his cards.
Ella loved the dancing part the most. One day she will love looking back at the different cards and read about the things we loved about her when she was two years old!
