Happy Valentine's Day! (does that need an apastrophe? ;) )

My grandfather Wilson Mayfield's middle name was Valentine. He was born on Christmas Day in 1902. So Valentine's day is pretty cool in my house.

My Wilson Mayfield (he of the blue tongue) gave me and Carla the best little Valentine surprise this morning!

$1.10 and 5 kisses and the greatest note ever!!!!!!!
Later in the day, a few cookies were delivered to Holyoke School 3A.

When I got home, I found a couple of great letters in the mail!

Tami always sends great letters. She always asks the right questions that cause me to respond with many answers. So, I immediately sat and wrote a response, this time with many of my own questions!

Also, I received a fantastic letter from Vicki! Vicki and I have so many interests in common and well, we both have teenagers and young adults in our lives. So we have ALOT to talk about.

Vicki is one of those mail arty types. Her handmade envelope is outstanding!

And lest you think that I spent this romantic day writing to other women...this is the first thing I wrote this morning.

Carla said it was much better than flowers! I guess old EBB knew what she wrote about.
