Valentine's Day

DH and I do not celebrate Valentine's Day. As far as I could recall, we probably celebrated Valentine's Day during first few years of dating, back when we were in a college. 18 years later, with a 7 years old son in our midst, our love is now solid as a rock. Sure, just like any real relationships, not everything is sweet. We went through bumps of life and that what makes it real. We were tested many times but we hold on to each other and surrender our relationship to God.

My little man was excited about Valentine's Day (and any other special days!). He made me this. Not just any card. It's a work of art. He says I could play like I am in the 100-acre wood.


He asked for a pink cardstock (since he knows my favorite color is pink), and if he could borrow my scissor and off he went creating this. Draw, write, cut, fold, and glue. Full of creativity! 


And the word "love you too" all over it.



And it's made with love! Who taught him that? He probably sees a lot of what I do in my crafty world :-)



Ethan didn't forget about his dad. He made one for DH with his childhood favorite character. Can you guess what it is?



And as I said, "I love you" to DH, he replied, "The feeling is mutual".  You gotta love that! Ha!

Spotted Tuesday: Sweet and Green

My son is quite sentimental and sweet. He melts my heart with his sweet words. Just last night, he asked if we could put a TV in his bedroom just like the one he has in our house in Vancouver. My answer was, "No, you do not need a TV in your room." Then I went on with my preaching that nothing is free and that you really have to work hard to get what you want. He replied, "That's okay, Mama. I will work really hard and when I'm 19 (the age that he thinks he'll be a grown up), I will earn money and buy 2 TVs. One for me and one for you and Papa.

How about this birthday card that he made for me? Not bad at all coming from a 6 years old boy, I'd say.





This picture below was taken by his teacher at the playground last year. I so appreciate the thoughtfulness of this amazing teacher. Taking pictures of her students and sharing them to parents.



With this picture in mind, I find these beautiful handmade products on Artfire and Storenvy.
