When I was young we always made valentine boxes complete with hearts, ribbon, and lots of doilies. Each time we received a valentine in the mail, from school, or from a friend, into the box they would go. Of course there was the slipping of little surprise notes and treats into the box from mom, dad, and sister too. It was so fun waiting for valentines day when we would have a tea party and then open up the box to find loads of cards, chocolates, and other gifts to open all at once. We have started our little boxes. Every once and a while I will notice a little whispering and giggling over by my box. It’s getting a little bit heavier each day. I can’t wait!
