. Have I ever mentioned that I have three boys? Um, yeah, I’m the only female in the house besides the dog and I often don’t like her. I like being the only girl ! And for Valentine’s Day I decorate. I made really cute cards for the occasion this year. Yes, with the youngest son being 9, they are kinda getting too old for my shenanigans and froo-froo girly ideas. Some how or another, even though I often think our teenage son hates me, they (relented) gladly sat for me to take cutie pie pictures and send to everyone we know. I didn’t even have to bribe them. I didn’t even have to beg very hard. But I absolutely did not have to pull out the ace in the hole and cry. No, I wouldn’t go that far!
These are the pictures I used for the card. I just love those boys! In the order you see them, they are 15, 9, and 10. Now before you think they are a bunch of sissified softies, I’ll make a confession. The oldest gladly sat for me when I said: “You can wear all black for the picture as long as it’s a solid color.” The youngest, pictured in the middle is almost laying down. That is no accident. It’s his favorite position. And I promise, he put on those clothes and as soon as the picture was done, he immediately dressed back into his pajamas. Then there is my middle child, pictured last. Words cannot begin to accomplish what it would take to describe taking pictures of him. So, I’ll just let you see for yourself:
Yes, I started planning Valentine’s Day on January 17th!
I would not trade these days for all the money in the world.
Pictures rarely tell the whole story. So I’m glad I got to share a little of the back story with you today.
Love and all things pink,
The end result is so adorable- but thanks for showing the outtakes so I don't have to feel so bad about what happens when I try to get my boys to pose!
