Holidays are really starting to be very fun for me and Cal. He is becoming more aware of the passage of time, and always asks me things like, "What's next?" and "What we do today?" Lucky for us, the spring months are adequately sprinkled with little holidays that get us through the weeks with joy. He loved Valentine's Day this year, and it's always so easy to come up with themed activities. One of our friends had us over to play and decorate cookies on afternoon. Just look at that focus!
Reed took me out to a Los Gatos restaurant for our biannual "fancy feast", and on Valentine's Night, we had a special dinner at home with Cal, complete with presents. Here is Cal opening his new apron:
My little boy loves to cook and bake with me, so he knew exactly what it was when he opened the package. Look how excited he is! We now hang it on a hook about 3 feet off the ground, and whenever we start dinner, he runs and puts in on himself. Same thing goes for hanging it up after we're done!
Reed's present was something to hang in his cubicle at work, which he was thrilled about.
We finished the night with Grandma Linebarger's chocolate lava cakes, cooked in heart-shaped ramekins.
We are very blessed to have so much love in our little family, and in our lives.
