Hearts…Flowers…Candy, what’s not to love about Valentines Day? I remember when my girls were younger how much fun they had getting ready for their Valentines Day party at school, making the heart covered “mail boxes”, shopping for valentine cards and picking out the best ones for their special friends and of course a big one for the teacher. Cupcakes were made, little red and sliver kisses were attached to the envelopes of their valentine cards and then when the party was over, the fun they had reading the valentines that they received from their friends. It was all great fun; it made them feel special and loved. That is what I truly love about Valentines Day…it’s an opportunity to let others know how much you care and how special they are to you.
Now that my girls are in high school, valentine parties are a thing of the past. Still I love to make the day special for them and usually bake cupcakes topped with pink frosting and conversation hearts and get them a small gift of some sort. This year I have decided on picking up some of their favorite eye shadow, lip gloss, and of course the traditional “red and white xxoo socks”. Denise came up with a wonderful little Bunkie Bag which she christened “Love Bunkie #9”. Love Bunkie #9 is perfect to hold the gifts that I am picking up for them AND they will be able to use the bag as a little purse, or to carry their CD’s, their DVD’s, their IPod…and the list goes on and on and on! What a Simply Charming idea!
Wishing you all a Simply Charming Valentines Day!
