I searched for new and unusual things to make Charlie for Valentines this year and I ended up on Pinterest. While on Pinterest I found a blog called We Love Being Moms this is a blog I hadn’t heard of before.
Now that I’ve found We Love Being Moms will be a blog I follow all the time. I enjoyed seeing the crafts we Love Being Moms creates as well as the Freebies they have on there blog.
One of the things I loved is the name of the blog We Love Being Moms and the theme is a circus theme. In our home it seems like we live in a Circus which is why We Love Being Moms is the perfect blog for my household.
If you take the time to visit We Love Being Moms you will see that the blog is written by moms who are twins. I would like to share a secret with you. I’ve always thought it would be fun to have a twin and I also wish Charlie had a twin. Have you even wanted a twin?
I would like to ask you to stop by We Love Being Moms and to check out there post 14 days of Valentines for kids. When I was done reading through the post I was crying because each day has a message on it that not only reminded me of Charlie but also my daughter Suzzane who is in Heaven and my Nephew David who is now grown.
I was even telling David that on the first of February we need to incorporate 14 days of Valentines for kids into our daily routine to get Charlie and our family off electronics while allowing us to spend one on one time together. Would you want to join us?
Here are the main activities I plan on creating with our family:
- Hershey’s Candy Bar because this is mine and Charlies favorite candy.
- .The Swedish Fish in memory of my daughter Suzzane.
- .The crayons because Charlie likes to color and it is something we could do together.
- The Balloons because we could let them go into the Sky to Heaven for Suzzane and she would also have a Valentines Gift.
- The last one I would do is the car and ball which would give Charlie then we would have something to play with outside which means we would be spending time together.
For a bonus I would give Charlie the Valentines Day Craft associated with bubbles. Charlie and I could blow the bubbles and fill them with kisses to send to Heaven to Suzzane and all of our other family who is in Heaven including his grandparents ie my mom and dad.
If you would like to do something like this for not only the children in your life but the adults the Authors of the post were kind enough to make tags we can print out and use just as they did. Except I will need to purchase a printer. How about you?
I know I’m not talented like We Love Being Moms are but I love knowing with there instructions I can create Valentines Day Crafts which would allow me to give gifts to the people on my Valentines Day List. As I was reading through the post for 14 Days of Valentines Crafts I was telling David I could even print the labels out and put them in a basket Charlie could take to his friends in our old neighborhood.
