Food and Traditions

It's interesting to think that a lot of our family traditions involve food - hmm?



Every Valentines I take orders of what everyone wants on their individual heart-shaped pizza. Ella and Aidan are easy (cheese and maybe some pepperoni). I seriously put whatever anybody wants. Mine was Greek this year with kalamata olives, red onions, feta cheese and sliced tomatoes. It was delicious! I'll have to recipe box this one.



Ella & Aidan love the giant rice krispy heart. I guess I'd be lying if I didn't say I enjoyed it too! :)

That is so great. Some day we are going to be better at celebrating V-day as a family. I always mean to and then I overlook it!

You are thoughtful and care very deeply for your family. A loving home is of great importance to you and you always try to make people feel welcome. Although you have a great capacity to love, you also have a great capacity to hurt, so at times you can be sensitive. You're firm when you need to be, but people trust your judgment and appreciate the kind way you always handle things.

Playing Opposites

I have been discussing opposites with the kids lately. Today (Oct. 1 ) we were doing an opposites puzzle and Aidan was doing amazingly well (turned 3, 3 months ago). There was a picture of fire with the word "hot." Here's the conversation: Me - What's the opposite of hot? Aidan - warm. Me - Well, not quite. Okay, fire is hot. What is ice? Aidan - slippery! LOL :)

Aidan - "See, I can do opposites with my toes!" ??
