February 14th snuck up on me this year. January flew by and now we're already halfway through this month.. Well anyway, in Spain Valentine's Day isn't a very big deal. BUT, since I'm here and very far away from all my American Valentines, especially my better half Sean, I decided that it would be a good idea to make something fun out of it. So, we made Valentine's Day cards. We printed a picture and folded the paper in half and voilà. Sandra and I wrote, "I'm thankful for your friendship because..." on the inside cover, and on the opposite side the children wrote 3 or 4 things about their friend that made them special. 
That seems simple enough, right? WRONG. Remember, it was in English.. They turned out pretty spectacular in my opinion, although often you can see two words combined into one, very complex misspellings, and an interesting mixture of capital and small letters... Nonetheless, I was VERY pleased as their teacher and they were all my very special Valentines.
