"just a pretty note"

I started the tradition to send little notes in Josey's snack bag many months ago. I thought it would be something from me that would help her not to miss me at school- (in the beginning drop-off was a bit hard for her- scratch that, BOTH of us)!!! I would simply write things like "I love you", "XXOX Momma" "Have a great day" ect. Friday- in all the excitement of her party @ school and with preparing for our special dinner, I completely forgot the note. I didn't think a thing about it. When we got home from school, after unpacking all of her fun Valentines and book bag- she said, "Momma I don't know all the words that you say on those pretty notes, but Mrs. Proulx and I looked everywhere for it and it was not there . Don't forget it tom. o-kay, it is part of my day". I felt so pleased that she even thought of the notes and moreover that she wanted them. Who knows when a "pretty note" can make someones day???

Josey's Valentine's Day Party Pics.....

recipe of the week: I make this with a yummy layer dip as an appetizer and something chocolate for dessert. It is great for company- it really takes no effort so you get to enjoy your guests .



Catherine's Chicken Tacos:
put chicken breasts along with 1 can Ro*tel
in crock pot for 4 hrs on low. Shred with fork-
put into taco shell and add fixins -(cheese, salsa, beans
rice, sour cream, guacamole, etc.). This is the
best/quickest family dinner favorite in our house!!!
ENJOY....
