• Happy Valentine’s Day

  “I don’t understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine’s Day. When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon.” –Author Unknown

  That is what I like about Valentine’s day in Brazil–I get to make it up for my kids, because they don’t know what it is (so no cupid involved). All I have to do is make sure I spell “Valentine” right, make cookies, and tell funny stories. No one expects anything. Perfect. And lots of fun.

  Happy Valentine’s day everyone!:)
