Valentine Trucks

Nothing says love like a large plastic truck with a Star Wars heart sucker in the back. This is what we got the four kids this year for Valentine's Day. Nothing sentimental just practical.

Carson and Owen woke first to find four trucks with suckers parked in our living room. They weren't sure if they got to play with them or what they were even for. After the big boys were told the trucks were their Valentine presents and they got to choose one they had a ball with them! They pushed them all over the house, had races and crashes like crazy. The big boys couldn't wait to wake Stella and Ike up to tell them what was waiting downstairs for them.

Isaac and Stella were just as excited about their trucks as their older brothers were. I was excited when it was time to go outside with the trucks. Things were starting to get a little out of hand with four trucks being pushed by four kids who all wanted to race and crash them. Luckily the weather was nice enough to play outside.

Ta-Da!

Daddy has put Carson and Owen to bed for the night. Owen and Carson chose to take their Magna-Doodles to bed with them this particular night. Daddy hears Owen saying "Daddy, I have a surprise for you!" Owen and Carson walk out of their bedroom. Owen has his Magna-Doodle behind his back. He says again, that he has a surprise for Daddy. Here is the rest of the conversation.
Owen: Ta-Da!
At this point Owen has revealed his drawing on his Magna-Doodle. It's a rectangle.
Daddy: What is it?
Owen: (Very proudly.) It's a truck!
Daddy: I love it!
Carson sends the boys back to bed. 45 seconds later....
Owen: Daddy, I have a surprise for you!
Both boys walk out of the bedroom. Daddy meets them outside their bedroom. Owen's Magna-Doodle is behind his back.
Daddy: What's your surprise, buddy?
Owen: Ta-Da! (Another rectangle is drawn on the Magna-Doodle. It resembles the first rectangle.)
Daddy: Another truck!
Owen starts laughing and shakes his head in disbelieve.
Owen: It's not a truck!
Daddy: It's not? What is it?
Owen: (Still chuckling.) It's a piece of bread!

God love the mind of a four year old!
I love flowers anytime, even when they have been picked from my own garden.
Carson and Owen picked these flowers for Mommy. Aren't my big boys so thoughtful?
