Scotty’s Valentine, Other Love Stories

My daughter decided she wanted to give a valentine to Scotty. So as not to set her expectations too high, I asked how she would feel if Scotty didn’t give her a valentine. ( I figure it’s never to early to learn the lesson that boys may not think to give you a valentine if you are not on the class list. ) Her response was surprisingly mature. “It would be okay. I just want him to know I appreciate him, ” she replied. Lemonhead had a approximately 25 valentines to hand out. The one she treasured most was Scotty’s. She kept it separate from the others. She put in her back pocket for safekeeping in between the umpteen times she pulled it out to see if it was still there/MamaJD. More here.

    Alas, I can’t remember her name, but it was also in Kindergarten, and I carried her books (mostly papers and such) home from school.

    MamaJD’s story was very touching.

    Jonathon Weathington and Tony Jennings followed by Brent Howard. That covers 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade. I didn’t attend Kindergarten.
