My Special Valentines

Wine and flowers

Valentine's Day has never been a big deal at the Peavy household, and this year was no different. And yet, it was almost a perfect day. D-man was done with his homework before we got home. We weren't running around getting the kids - we were just able to come home, sit down with the boys for dinner, play, read, and be together. I couldn't think of a better way to spend Valentine's Day than with the three boys that mean more to me than anything.

Marshall was kind enough to take the boys shopping for Valentine's Day gifts for me. T-man decided to get me lotion and spent a good deal of time smelling the different fragrances (he ended up with Appletini which smells great). D-man ended up picking out two wine glasses with hearts on them. He was looking for something else to get me and came up with the idea to get me some wine. He was looking for the wine I liked and Marshall finally got him to tell him that he was looking for boxed wine. Ha! (Apparently, my son is very observant). Marshall and I were touched by how thoughtful both boys were with their gift selections.

After the boys went to bed, Marshall and I enjoyed our Valentine's Day tradition - lobster tails and filet mignon. Drinking my boxed wine from my new heart glasses. Perfect.
