Dateline: Valentine's Day, 2003
Twins' Age: 17 months
A sucker for a holiday (just ask Double Daddy), as soon as the kids were old enough to open their own envelopes, we began the collect-the-cards-in-the-paper-sack tradition.
The very same two construction paper heart-adorned bags you see atop the high chair trays are now hanging stocking-style from our mantel...collecting greetings and goodies for Saturday's surprise.
Have a special memory to share? A picture with a story to tell? Now's the time!

You and I did valentine WBW posts today. How sweet - Look at those precious babies!!!
What a sweet idea! I was debating on what to do for A&R on Valentine's day. I did get heart shaped molds for suckers so might try that too.
I love their baby faces in those pics :)
