I Will Show You...

My Valentine.
Alex and Kaylee went to their Tuesday class today and afterwards they had the opportunity to make a valentine. Each happily worked on her valentine, carefully placing each sticker and making sure to choose just the right sticker as well. Alex got a little side tracked once she found the glue stick (shocker.) but Kaylee was plugging away at those stickers. It got a little hairy to say the least when it came time to go home. Kaylee was able to break ties with the stickers although she let me know she wasn't happy about my choice...she thought it was "no goi" (in big people talk, "not a good choice"). She threw an honest to goodness category 5 fit when we tried to leave- thank goodness it was just my friend Lisa and I there when this all went down. Maybe it was more like an F-5 fit because tornadoes can hit hard and without warning, just like Kaylee did today. She was mad all the way to the car and even still once she was in the car, Sheepy ended up saving the day. And once she was fine she was as happy as could be, meanwhile Alex just toddled along happily and just looked at Kaylee like "really? You are kinda loud and ridiculous right now."
Kaylee found comfort in admiring her handiwork the whole ride home and just stared at her valentine. She was so attached to her very first Valentine she even wanted to take a nap with it- I convinced her to hang it on the fridge instead. Alex's hung with pride as well though they were both confused when they went to nap without their cherished valentine...it was sad and adorable all at the same time. The girls had a nice nap and the first thing they wanted was their "haarta" aka. Valentine heart- here they are with their "haarta".
