Miles!
His idea or Sara’s to write more than “to”, “from”?

You guys are way too ambitious! I don’t even have my kids write who the cards are to. They just sign their name so all the cards are identical and then there’s no sorting at school. They just drop one card in each bag and they are done. Last year we did homemade cards and cookies for everyone. This year I bought cards from the store and they went in a little bag with 3 hershey kisses. Bon, ben, voila! I’m getting smarter (no, not lazier!) in my old age.

Except for cutting the cardstock into 4×5’s the Valentines were 100% Miles. I had no idea he was going write a message to each classmate. (I certainly wouldn’t have)
And I’m not sure what Ellie has in mind but if you saw the final product “ambitious” would certainly not be the word used to describe it. I’ll post a picture later. You’ll see what I mean.
Anyway, it was fun to see what he came up with.

That is so awesome, especially knowing that it was completely his own idea. What a thoughtful, thorough boy!
