I don’t usually go so crazy with Valentine’s Day, but this year, I seem to be going all out.

I think it’s because 1) I missed all of the red in my house when the Christmas decorations came down and 2) this may be the last year I have a child who will exchange Valentines cards in school.  My kids are just growing up way too fast for me and I’m trying to hang on to all of the little things as long as I can!

That’s why a little Valentine’s Day mail bag was the perfect solution.  

It will lie flat in her binder before the mail exchange, and then it will be easy to carry home when it’s full! (more…)
