This morning after breakfast the kids got to open their Valentine’s presents from Melissa and me. It was fun to watch them opening them up.
POD: Making Valintines
Tonight before the kids headed off to bed we sat down and wrote out Valentine’s for their classes. It was fun to watch them each filling out the cards for their classmates.
POD: Family Game Night
Tonight after dinner the kids cleared the table, and out came the Monopoly Junior. It was fun sitting around the table as a family playing a board game. I really think we should do it more often. I wonder what game we will play next time.
POD: Report Card Day
Today the kids brought home their report cards, it’s the first year where we don’t have a parent teach conference to go with the report card. My picture of the day is from Violet’s report card. I think it’s of our family or maybe her friends. I didn’t get a chance to ask her as …
