So I am always going a million miles a minute and as I walked into school on Tuesday, I saw a sign up sheet for the class Valentine's Day party. Since I made those snowmen desserts and then Liam got sick and those snowmen never made it to school, I decided to try, try again. While carrying Izzy in one hand, trying to get Liam's coat and book bag off in the other, I quickly kissed him goodbye and sent him into class (note, that I didn't have to pry him off my leg!), and I proudly signed up to bring snack again. I had a bunch of appointments that day, so Edwina came to pick Liam up for me, so I never saw the sign up sheet again. Come Wednesday afternoon, I think, hey, is the party tomorrow or on Tuesday after Valentine's Day (it's a T/Th class). I decide with conviction that it has to be Thursday. I borrow all of Meaghan's baking stuff and make the coolest heart-shaped brownies. Well, cool for me, because I am a cook, not a baker. Did I mention that we also made Liam's Valentine's cards, like made them from scratch? Yeah, also ready for Thursday. We march in and guess what!?! Party is on Tuesday. Oh well, I can't get it right! I'll blame it on sleeplessness. The kiddos got a special pre-Valentine's treats and it beat the heck out of those pretzels they were going to get for snack today.
But ho-hum, what am I going to make for Tuesday now? I can't do the same thing-how passé! Back to the drawing board for me! But here are some photos of Liam and a friend helping me out with some of the eating, oh, I mean baking.

Liam,
You and Maeve were a big help to Mommy I am sure. And those heart shaped brownies...they look delicious and beautiful. I just know that all the children in the class loved them. I know that you really love baking with Mommy, and you are very good at it too.
P.S. Mom's a good baker as well as an amazing cook :-)))
lots of love, hugs, kisses, Grandma O
