HAPPY WEEKEND 
&
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY
EVERYONE!!

It has been one heck of a crazy week..
Mother Nature has been pulling some serious punches..
Luckily us New Englanders came through yesterday's storm unscathed..
and today...
Today, I hear the glorious sound of snow melting under a gorgeous bright blue sky..

I woke up this morning to some extra Valentine's Day kisses from my boys..
perfect way to start the day..
I think the chocolate covered strawberries from his secret admirer (not me!) that arrived yesterday in the snowstorm (hooray UPS)
got the Monster into the holiday spirit.. 

Speaking of the holiday spirit..
I was told by my too cool for school middle schooler weeks ago that 5th graders don't give Valentines..
My heart wilted a bit..
Are we really there yet? 
Aha..Not yet..
Cause lo & behold we received the class list 2 days ago..
What to create in 2 days in the middle of a snowstorm??
Hmm...
Certainly not a masterpiece..
But we Wessons don't give up..
so...
The Monster picked the candy
(of course the one with the hardest name to rhyme)
and
this old lady's brain had to start chug chug chugging..

So here we go my lovely Readers..
One just for you!!

a little glitter to start your week..


Honestly..
I am absolutely positively over my winter boots..
And my toes..
Well, my toes are feeling suffocated by the layers upon layers of cotton socks..
If only I could show them some LOVE...
Maybe this little ode to summer toes will help...
