Valentines Comes Early

Dwayne came home Friday night with a heart-shaped balloon and gift bag for each girl (and tulips and truffles for me!). The girls were ecstatic getting their special gifts of a card and stuffed animal—almost as pleased as Daddy to give them! It is certainly more fun to give than receive when it comes to children.

He began with Mussels Josephine, just like Bone Fish prepares, and then steamed us each lobster tail. The girls got mac and cheese and were happy with that. We finished with a special chocolate cake Kyla picked out for me, with Daddy’s help.
