Valentines Day was very fun this year. She got the idea of making valentines to show people we care and we had lots of fun with glue, glitter, "jewels", stickers, and sequins. I had her choose which kids from her class should get which stickers, and it was interesting to see how she knew their personalities and likes already at this age. Then of course there was the candy. I can hear her brain thinking "Another reason to get candy? Awesome!"
The Big 3. I'm starting to be fearful of her birthdays. Last year she got pneumonia on her birthday (at least we had the little "party") and this year, the Saturday before her party she started an epic sickness with a fever for 5 days. This followed an ear infection from the week before which she was still on antibiotics for. It wasn't the flu-we checked. Just some crazy virus. So the planned party at the Aquarium had to be cancelled. Luckily by her official birthday she was at least ready to eat her sprinkle cake.
The Easter bunny came early to our house this year. I get to visit Ben and Alan in San Diego on official Easter so we went to Hayward last weekend and dyed eggs at both Mèmè and Poppas houses and that clever bunny hid those eggs at both places. There was lots less snow in Hayward so that was better for hunting. Although at the time of hunt number one, it was only 25 degrees and she was in snow pants and winter coat. She loves the hunt and the basket full of candy (MORE candy and ANOTHER stuffy) was of course the highlight. She's in for a rude awakening when she realizes there are no more candy holidays for a long time. Feast or famine.
