Thank y’all so much for loving on me better than any blogging girl deserves.
And to top it off? We’ve had just about the best Valentine’s ever at our house tonight.
My two fellas cooked me a supper fit for a queen (well, D. did the cooking; Alex did lots! of jumping! and clapping! and train racing!). We had a wonderful meal, complete with red velvet cake (“Mama! WE USED THE MIXER!”), and then D. gave me what I do believe is the absolute cutest gadget I have ever seen in my life:
Y’all.
It’s an iPod Shuffle – about the size of two postage stamps – and do you want to know the best part?
IT’S ORANGE!
Because I’m a girl! And I love color!
Actually, that’s not the best part at all. The best part is what D. had engraved on the back (did you know you could get iPods engraved? I had no idea. But now that I’ve seen it with my own eyes, I’m pretty sure that it’s, you know, the gratist. idea. evir.):
“We Love You – Daddy & Boo”
(I call D. “Daddy” most of the time, for those of you who are terribly confused re: the inscription.)
An engraved iPod. Oh, be still, my technology-lovin’ heart.
It’s been a great day. Made even better by the fact that Alex wanted to hug every single time we opened a card, opened a gift, looked at a card, talked about a gift, etc. In fact, as he was leaving the den on his way to bed tonight, he looked back at D. and said, “Whew, Daddy! It’s been a BIG Valentine’s Day! And it was fun! It sure was!”
I couldn’t agree with him more.
