As you know it is nearly Valentine's month, so I am going thru my things. I found another Valentine that my favorite guy (my son Brandon) made for me. I must be allergic to this one too because my eyes watered, lip quivered and my heart beats increased dramatically! LOL!
This Valentine is probably 21 years old but it must be under a great warranty because it still works! It pulls at my memory bank and my heart at the same time after all these years!!

How sweet. When my Mom died I found a card I made her when I was little and I cried so much that she kept it all those years and now I keep it. Sweet post.

Morning Lilly! So so sweet to have that valentine still! Made me tear and he isn't even mine!!!lol love the wreaths you show; sometimes it just isn't worth it to make them, I keep forgetting CVS has stuff like that, need to check it out. Sometimes I feel like that little bud here in blogland!!!lol As far as the light in the closet I've never tried those but I think that is an excellent idea! Painting red did darken even during the day but thankfully I have everything memorized so reaching for those snacks isn't an issue!!!lol lol I needed to use 1-1/2 inch ribbon on those shelves if yours are the same! It really was one of the most satisfying projects I've done and quicker too!!! Have a fun and safe weekend; Til later, Jeannette

So sweet, Lilly. You are starting your 12 days of Valentines Day early - wonderful! Pin it to your fridge. Also, can you re-post your "carved in butter" comment on my blog. I hit the wrong button and lost it! Thanks, Anne
