I did not win any Mom-of-the-Year awards on Valentine’s Day, yesterday. I’d planned to help Finn make some Pinterest-worthy homemade goodies for his preschool classmates, but instead we bought a box of ready-made Peppa Pig valentines at Target, complete with questionable neon-colored suckers, and called it a day.
Since Sona and I just got back from our little trip to San Antonio, we are still easing back into mom life. And, as it turns out, crafting was not part of the re-entry process.
Still, we wanted to have a quiet V-day celebration at home–just the three of us. We made heart-shaped pizza and chocolate fondue, letting Finn do all of the heavy lifting. We ate in our PJs, let Finn basically bathe himself in the chocolate sauce, and didn’t even bother breaking out the big camera (hence these pretty mediocre photos).
BUT–we didn’t touch a TV or iPad once, didn’t have any meltdowns, and we did do a lot of laughing. So, I’d say it was a win.
