Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day


Olivia has been really looking forward to Valentine's Day. We made valentine's decorations and Olivia would always reenact making the decorations when anyone mentioned the work heart or Valentine's Day. She would get so excited and run over to the exact spot she had colored the decorations and say "draw, draw!" and point to the decorations she had made.


After church we decorated Valentine's cookies. Olivia had a great time. She was in charge of dyeing the frosting and of course decorating the cookies. I was surprised that Olivia just sat there decorating her cookies without even attempting to lick the frosting or eat anything. Then a little frosting got on her lip and she realized that this was not just an art project, but what she had in her hands was very tasty. After that she was excited to lick the frosting off her cookies.
