I apologize for being late on this kit. Life has been more than busy, and I got food poisoning for Valentine's Day. Not my favorite!!!
My daughter Annika is a hopeless romantic. Her favorite color is pink. She loves to wear dresses. She loves to sing. She loves all the romance from the princess movies. I picture her playing the part of Giselle in the movie Enchanted.
I remember once when she was in preschool a boy had given her a kiss. She knows she's not allowed to kiss boys until she's WAY older, and when she came home she told me about it. With a "sour look" on her face, she said, "Mom, Zach kissed me." But then as she walked away her face turned into a dreamy smile, and I knew the sour face was all a facade. Later that day I heard her playing in her room and she was singing to herself the song from Cinderella:
So this is love, hmmmm, so this is love So this is what makes life divine....etc.
That little story right there sums up romance for me in a nutshell. Being in love brings a smile to my face. Being in love makes me sing silly love songs. Being in love brings purpose to my life. I love my husband Cory and am so lucky to have him. I also love my children and they make me who I am.
I know a lot of people don't celebrate Valentine's because it's marketed as being a "couple's holiday." But I think Valentine's is much more than that. It is about loving people. Sometimes it means loving a spouse. Sometimes it means your children or parents. Sometimes it's the neighbor next door. We all can give our love to others. So this is love!

I love that you have such precious blogs. I love the kit- we had such an enjoyable day. I am excited to scrap it
lurved the story of your little girl singing from Cinderella...I think your little girl and my little girl are cut from the same mold. I just *happened* to be eavesdropping outside my daughter's room (she's 3) and heard her singing to herself at naptime.
So thanks for the memory! :)
Thank You Thank You Thank You.

So sorry to read you were sick. Hope health finds its way back in your life. I love reading the beautiful stories you offer when you post. Thank you for this lovely kit. Hugs.
Thank you!
I agree with you that Valentines Day is about loving others, not just your spouse! Sometimes I end up bring a couple of extra kids home from school so I decided to present them all with Giant Pixie Sticks - they were surprised and very happy. Maybe it was just the sugar rush, I don't know :)
Thank you for the wonderful story and the beautiful kit.
Thank you for sharing another gorgeous kit. Your kits are fabulous.
