We don't buy candy or cards for Valentine's Day and instead we give gifts to make the boys feel special -- like these t-shirts. The shirts were inexpensive, super easy to make and the kids loved them.
Another thing I do to make my kids feel special is put a note in their lunches every day. While they typically never say anything about the notes, if I miss putting one in, I hear about it.
And not in a nice loving way either.
But on occasion, due to circumstances beyond my control *twitter cough cough* I don't have enough time to write a note and put it in.
So I was very exicted when Hallmark sent me these this week.
Cute, aren't they? It's part of their Valentine's Day collection but for a note writing mom like myself, these little notes will be making an appearance throughout the year. They have cute sentiments on each one and the best part is you you can just tear them out and slip them into the lunch bags.
Assuming that you didn't spend too much time on twitter and actually made your kids their lunches.
