a pretty good valentine's day experience...

i'm not the biggest fan of valentine's day... i never really have been... and today just seemed like a normal day aside from all of the talk shows emphasizing on love and valentine's day... but no big deal...

then, when i went to check the mail this afternoon, i walked outside and saw the neighborhood kids playing in the grass beside our apartment... as soon as they saw me, all of them yelled, "happy valentine's day!!!" almost like they were told to... it was so cute... and so i said "happy valentine's day" back to them... and i asked them if they ate a lot of candy at school today... one said "no" and one said "yes..."

then... (this is the best part) one of the youngest boys ran up and threw his arms around me and looked up at me and said, "happy valentine's day!" it was the best valentine's present i could have gotten...

then my roommates and i made heart-shaped brownie cakes... yum!!!

so all in all, it was a pretty good valentine's day!!!

that's so much fun! my friends and i have been making heart-shaped cookies for about 5 days now for a fundraiser we've been doing for the alzheimer's association...so i don't think i want to see heart shaped sweets again for a very long time.
