the boy had a snow day (it didn't snow; the husband got a noon start because of ice!), so we spent the morning painting Valentines for his classmates. Afterward, I grabbed a blank sheet and started with lines. He added hearts. I wrote "love" in cursive, so he wrote it twice in his adorable handwriting. He outlined my hearts, I outlined his. It was a collaboration of the best kind.

I have busted out the sewing machine for a few quick projects. My machine isn't pretty, though, so I thought I'd share an image of some old spools of thread.
