Directions for Valentines came home a week ago. Fifteen cards that needed to be signed and addressed by Ryland. He would also need a bag or box to collect cards. We worked on the cards a few days in advance, and Ryland picked out a gift bag with colorful hearts. He was all set, so I packed everything in his book bag.
Around 11PM, I crawled into bed, and I flipped through Facebook on my phone. I saw all of these "Valentine boxes". Completely over the top, Pinterest, Martha Stewart crafted boxes filled my news feed. Immediately, I knew I could not send Ryland to school with his heart gift bag. Back up and ready to craft. I mod podged a head of Steve from Minecraft on a cereal box.
The next morning, Ryland was so shocked. His expression made my hours of work so worthwhile. He loved it and was excited to show it off at school.
