Hi kids! What a change in the weather! I bet you are as glad as I am that it has warmed up... for now! When I went on my walk this morning it felt great to be back in my tennis shoes and light jacket. Also, I found it a lot easier to walk now that all the ice has melted. Just think, spring is around the corner!
Speaking around the corner, Valentine’s Day is too! I hope you have all your Valentine’s made out. In case you were on the lookout for something different to do for this special occasion, this book will be perfect! Since Valentine’s Day falls on a Saturday this year, I thought you may want to do something fun at home with your family. Or as the book suggests you could have a Valentine pizza party or a cookie or cupcake decorating party with your friends. Either one sounds like fun to me!
Until next time, xoxoxox to all of you for Valentine’s Day!
Your friend,
Sherry
