How much do I love thee?

2.11.2016


Free Printable Valentines Day Banner, How much I love you by hour

Let me count down the ways that I love you! In case I don’t show you enough how much I love you, I present to you….(drumroll please)….The Hourly Love Banner. For each hour of your day on Valentine’s Day, you can take out a little note card with a proclamation of my undying love and affection. And while all of my proclamations may seem like they’re directed towards a fresh, 100% pure beef, unfrozen hamburger patty….trust me, they are really written for you. You have a lot in common with my favorite meal: you’re always fresh, you’re always consistent, and you always satisfy me. These are reasons why I love you. And they just so happen to be reasons why I love In N Out too.

Now, I know that I’m not the only Valentine’s Freak out there. I can’t possibly be the only woman that loves to go overboard with love notes, heart decals, and sweet treats. I do, however, know that some of my friends are not nearly as obnoxious about it as I happen to be (which…to be fair…my husband happens to tell me he appreciates). So for those friends, I thought I’d throw them a little lifeline. Hence my Hourly Love Banner. Which I just named. It’s a great name, isn’t it?

Free Printable Valentine's Day Hourly Banner

Simply print the banner, cut out the hearts, and string into a banner. It does require a little bit of time, which we all know is very valuable these days. So that’s why your Valentine will appreciate it even more. Especially when you can talk your creative friend into cutting and stringing it for you. Which my friend just so happened to do.

If you don’t have the space for an hourly banner, just hand your Valentine the hearts each hour. Which also happens to be the way I plan on doing it. In Mexico. On the beach. With a cocktail in my hand. Trip #2 of 2016 here I come!

After printing the hourly hearts, you will need to create a back pocket for them. I traced mine onto white cardstock and used a glue stick to adhere. Trim to size! Good luck. I couldn’t have made it any easier for you.

    Much better ideas than I suggested, Shauna. 🙂

      Hahaha I’m sure your ideas were so good. Probably too good, so the blogging gods spammed them.

When you stop to think about the fact that one day When you stop to think about the fact that one day all of her toys will be someone else’s toys, she’ll be heading off to college, and all I’ll be left with are these videos…
This is NOT a post to bash moms that are happy the This is NOT a post to bash moms that are happy their kids are going back to school. My neighbors and I commiserate all summer long about how long the days are, how frustrating the kids can be, how much they’re fighting, etc. 

But my days are always like that, and even though it’s exhausting and overwhelming at times, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Even if I only have ONE moment like this a day, it’s one moment a day I could miss out on if they were in a traditional school. 

So here’s to whatever choice you are making in regards to your kids education. What’s best for YOU is most important. And what’s best for us is this.

 to squish around. The Slime Prank Lab by @CrunchLabs
turns it into an activity. We spent the afternoon mixing the slime, experimenting with different textures, and (of course) testing out the ridiculously funny booger and fart pranks. 🤣

My girls were completely entertained, and I loved watching them create, experiment, and laugh together. It feels like pure fun for the kids, but there’s actually some pretty cool science and engineering behind it all, plus Mark Rober walks you through even more with the QR code inside the kit.

Who in your family would be the first prank target?

A core memory I didn’t know I’d be making… This w A core memory I didn’t know I’d be making…

This weekend at church, my daughter got to light the candles for the first time. At the end of the service, when she went up on her own to extinguish them, proud tears dropped from my eyes. And as I looked around at others, I noticed I wasn’t the only one. 

If you had asked me in my early to mid twenties, I wouldn’t have imagined how much this community, this faith, and these little traditions would come to mean to our family. There was a season of my life, long before I became a mom, where I drifted away from actively going to church. Now, getting to watch my girls grow up surrounded by faith, love, and a church family who knows them and celebrates them feels like such a gift.
Hot take: We’ve convinced ourselves kids need bigg Hot take: We’ve convinced ourselves kids need bigger backyards, when what they really need is neighborhood kids.

I used to think about more square footage, more land, more privacy. Now? I’d rather my girls have friends they can run to than an acre they have to play on alone.

A bigger house isn’t always a better childhood. For us, built-in community has been worth more than an extra bedroom ever could be.

I know this won’t be everyone’s opinion, but I think for elementary-aged kids, having friends next door is more valuable than having a huge yard. Anyone else change their mind about what “dream home” actually means?

I’ll die on this hill: kids birthday parties SHOUL I’ll die on this hill: kids birthday parties SHOULD feel magical.

Before anyone comes at me, I’m not talking about spending thousands of dollars. I’m talking about picking a theme, hanging the decorations, baking the cake (or buying it and decorating at home), planning the games, and making your kid feel like the most important person in the world for one day.

That’s the stuff they’ll remember.

You don’t need a huge budget to make childhood feel special. Agree or disagree?
Even with the bathroom trips. 🤣 Listen. Social me Even with the bathroom trips. 🤣

Listen. Social media tends to make traveling with children look glamorous, and the truth is, it usually isn’t. Are some kids professional travelers? Of course. But reality is that there’s always pitfalls and unexpected turbulence that you just have to mentally prepare for before you travel. And in the end? I promise you, it’s worth all the hassle.
