The first thought in my head this morning...

is "Oh, No! - It's Monday and my weekend is gone!!!" The second thought in my head occurs a nanosecond later when I look at the clock on my cell phone to discover that it is, in fact, only Sunday morning!!! I still have time to create my Valentine's gifts for my family and my husband!!! I can still stitch away on the pretty petite pincushions for my mom to use while she's quilting; I'm still able to bring out my pen and inks to pen and collage homemade valentines to send off to my brother and sister and still make the mushy cards for my hubby to find stashed in his briefcase, under his pillow, and taped to the bathroom mirror when he wakes in the morning. I'm just grateful to have a day to make meaningful gifts for my family and create beauty on a beautiful January day in Minnesota!

Hey, Tammy -- so it's like you got an extra day!  I hope you did everything you wanted to, so that tomorrow (Monday) you won't have to be sorry it's Monday!

Hugs -- Aunt Bobby

What a sweet post. I love making Valentine's for everyone too, but I'm a bit behind this year. Too many other things on the go right now. Glad you'll get it all done.
