I am thankful that...this 8 year old still loves his mama.
Today was Valentine's Day. I slipped a Valentine card into both of the boys' lunch boxes this morning. I was hesitant to put one into Ethan's lunch box. The one I had was one with an orange kitty on it (like our cat Perry). I debated whether Ethan would be embarrassed by it or think it was lame or whatever. In the end, though, I slipped it into his lunchbox. When he got home, I was looking through his bag of Valentines that he had received from his classmates, and I saw the one I had put in his lunchbox. I picked it up and said, "Oh look at this one...who gave you this one?" He grinned and said, "it was my favorite one" and gave me a hug. And although he didn't know it? That was his Valentine gift to me.
tearlet!
