Four years ago, I unknowingly started a Valentine's Day tradition. Brian was going to be out of town and I didn't want to sit around feeling sorry for myself, so I decided to make my own fun. I ordered takeout chinese food from P.F. Chang's, and told the kids to go upstairs until I called them down for dinner. I set dinner on the floor, lit some candles and sprinkled some candy hearts around their plates. I put Mulan in the dvd player to watch while we ate our meal (normally,the t.v. is never invited to dinner). When the kids came down they were delighted. So, the stage was set for Valentine's Dinner from then on.

Last night we watched Kung Fu Panda instead of Mulan, Weston mostly ate chocolate, but the tradition is still going strong.
