Valentine's Day Sentiments

 Why, yes.  Yes,  I do need a big  reminder this year.

I love you kids SO much.

But seriously.  Ya'll are the source of a lot of angst.   

For example, I have asked you to stop picking your noses and shoving the finger immediately into your mouth.  I asked you to stop doing it in public, for sure, but especially at restaurants.

(ONE of you is ten years old, dude.)

I need the reminder after the freak-outs and tears at Target.

One of you constantly wants Lego sets and candy.

The other just wants to run away from me and hide in the clothing racks.

And then waits until the cart is overflowing to tell me that you to pee.  El PRONTO.

One of you continues to point out my belly and tell me that it is big.

So, yea.  I need a ginormous reminder this year.

Thanks guys.  I needed to be told that!  

Mercifully, the three year old is only drawing large heads on tiny little stick legs.  So, the "big belly" was omitted.

And this was from the husband.

How he found a card to express his sentiments, exactly?  I don't know.  It was pretty impressive, though.

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone.

May the wait to get into your restaurant of choice tonight not be miserably long.

There Can Never Be Too Much Lipstick. Or Wine.

There are some things that I just love.

I love the swirl at the top of the margarine in a brand new container of Country Crock.

I love the perfect little loop on top of a soft-serve ice cream cone.

But most of all ~  MOST OF ALL.  I love a brand-new lipstick.   I love how flawless it is, how creamy it looks.  

It was a toss-up today between a lip glaze and a lipstick...and this moment reminds me that I made absolutely the right decision.
