Valentine's Day.
I know, I know, it is a Hallmark holiday. Yes, I also know that we should show and shower our loved ones with affection EVERY day, not just on ONE day. Yet, I cannot help but get a little giddy about hearts, and pink, and red, and glitter. Valentine's Day for me has never been about solely romantic love. It is about all kinds of love. Mostly, it is just an excuse to be a little extra mushy-gushy with those that hold a little space in your heart.
This year we had an extra special little Valentine; our sweet Liv. My heart skips a beat when I think of how much love there is between the three of us. This will be the first of many Valentine's Day lunches with mummy and daddy. We've started a tradition and there is no going back. Do you think it will be acceptable for us to MAKE her have lunch with us every year till forever? Yeah, I thought so, forever it is.
We opted for lunch al fresco to savor the beautiful weather Florida gifted us. And our little munchkin enjoyed people watching as we ate our meal (She is a thoughtful one that Liv). Next year I'll let her eat some of my braised short rib tostada.
After lunch was over we headed home to put our Valentine down for her nap. And, instead of taking a much needed mommy nap, I baby meal prepped for the week. Overall, our day was quiet, and peaceful, and perfect. Well, except that Felipe cracked his iPhone screen during our photo session. Yeah, that really happened. It can't all be smooth sailing, can it? I blame it on his tight jeans and his sudden love for creative photography (He needs practice, I know).
I hope that your day was just as fabulous. I hope that no matter how you spent it or with whom that it was the icing on the cake.
Oh, and of course, happy Monday.
