L is snuggled in bed, cuddled up with Kit, her newest Skelanimals stuffed animals, which we gave her today for Valentines Day. Skelanimals are her latest obsession, following on the heels of dinosaurs, Webkinz, Build-a-Bears, and mythological creatures, particularly dragons,unicorns, pegasi and gargoyles. She is now slowly building up a collection of these skeleton-adorned small stuffed animals - Jack the purple jackrabbit, Dax the black puppy, and now Kit the pink fox kit. Their bones glow in the dark for a while, which is an even bigger incentive to sleep with them, of course. At least they don't make noise.
Stuart and L got me a box of chocolates and a bouquet of flowers for Valentines Day - my kiddo is picking up on cultural expectations for what is romantic - and an electronic picture frame for me to keep on my desk at school with pictures of them, which is one of the most incredibly thoughtful gifts ever.
L and I got Stuart a KU shirt and a Chiefs shirt - we were looking for a Royals shirt, but couldn't find one. We also got him some gadgetry for his shelving units for our future car trailer, and I made a Raspberry Swirl for him. It's one of those concoctions that his mother made for him growing up and he adores it, but it is a huge pain in the neck to make, so he gets it about once every three years. It's what he had for dinner tonight - yep, just that.
