Valentine’s Day With The Kids

One of the best things about having kids is the opportunity to make a big deal out of little holidays. But this year, please ask your husband to refrain from dressing as Cupid and surprising the kids when they get home from school. The neighbors are still discussing last year’s “adult-diaper/crossbow incident.”
