My Busy Valentines

The kids were looking forward to our annual fancy Valentine's treat, but we couldn't get it fit into our busy schedules. No one ever warned me that being a teen mom means most of my time is spent driving kids to and from places. But here we are. Valentine's Day was no exception. 

We settled on our family celebration the Sunday before. That was the only time all week that we would all be home on the same evening at the same time. It also happened to be Super Bowl Sunday, so we had to make it a lunch.

The actual day was spent at the soccer field. Zeke had winter guard practice which was supposed to be cut short for Daddy to take him to scouts. But at the last minute Zeke felt he needed to stay at practice for an upcoming performance and skip scouts. Bonus for me--Abe was able to join me for Daisy's soccer game. 

My forever Valentine.

As always, thinking of my brother on his heavenly birthday. The old geezer would have been 55 this year.
