Oh, Sweet Saint Valentine

Frances had a very nice Valentine's.  She woke up to two balloons that the Saint Valentine's Day Bunny (or whatever) brought her.  Frances was particularly pleased with the Dora balloon, her newest friend.

Then we opened some cards, ate some chocolate - the breakfast of champions, and played Peek.

Frances's Mimi has been in a sewing frenzy lately, luckily for us.  For Valentine's she made Frances this nifty twirly skirt.

To die for, no?

Frances and I gave the library story time another try (after our self-exile last week) and Frances was the belle of the ball, among a lot of girls dressed in pink.  We made it through this week, all the way to the craft at the end of story time.  Too bad her horrid mother didn't let her wear her red squeaky shoes.  Horrid mother.
