Valentine's Day

We recently celebrated Valentine's Day at the Davis house. It is hard holiday for me to balance being a mom and being a teacher...with parties for all the classrooms in my life it makes for a very busy time in our life.  It helped that Mathias decided to do their party on the Friday before Valentine's Day. I managed to get all of the stuff ready for both parties....did I happen to mention it was also conference week?? So when I get home at 7pm on Thursday I am making a Valentine box for Emily...

Emily and her box!

Emily's decorated cookies :)

Emily's party and my classroom party managed to occur at exactly the same time, but Emily's teacher took some pictures and e-mailed them to me. If you will look at the last picture of her class you will notice that she is the one who can't stop laughing...

Well we managed to survive...the next week I was digging through her backpack and found this Valentine...melted my heart!







" I am glad to have a mom like you. You make me happy. You cook dinner for me." Pretty special.

Well the following week I was able to go to Sarah's party....as I have said countless times...it is much easier to be the mom at the party vs. the teacher at the party!

Such a cutie! 

Well as part of their party they worked on sorting and then making a pattern with their Valentine's hearts....Look at that lovely AB pattern!
