Happy Valentine’s Day to all my Subbies (Subscribers)!! ♥♥

I have fond memories of taking a shoe box to school and decorating it brightly with crepe paper to hold all the Valentines I received from my friends.

Some of the more affluent mothers bought the little candy hearts with cute sayings for their kids to stick on the cards. Those were a special treat.

I still have a collection of cards that I got in third grade, and needless to say, they are one of my most precious treasures from my childhood days.

    I have moved around so much I am always decluttering. I think I got rid of them at the end of every year.
