Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day:







This was a fun day for Elleigh at school and I got to come and help with her Valentines party at school! It turned out to be a very enlightening experience. I learned from another mom that Elleigh and her son were engaged and that she had many love notes from my daughter saved at her house. Her cute son told her that he knows that the daddy is usually taller than the mommy but this time the mommy was going to be taller (since Elleigh is a head taller than him) but he thinks it's ok. This little Taylor is a very cute boy so Elleigh does have good taste. And it's probably good that she isn't bothered by the social stigma where men "need" to be taller. It was hilarious!!
All around a good day but my heart was a little heavy to be without my husband. We don't really make a huge deal about Valentine's Day but we are always together and we do something simple that means a lot. So to have him gone was very hard. There were quite a few tears shed that night. I am glad that it's over.

Sophie and Her Teddy



The infamous teddy. Matt says that I am too soft when it comes to this thing but I love that she is so attached to it! Her Aunt Carly gave her this teddy and she can take it with her to college if she wants! I am catching everyone up on what has gone on over the last 6 months since I stopped posting while Matt was at Officer Training School for 4 months and then we moved to Mississippi. So watch out for all the random posts! This is also for me and my idea of record keeping.
