I actually felt a pang of jealousy (not proud of that) reading about the traditions you've shared with a wonderful group of friends. That is such a gift, and I do know you acknowledge and appreciate that. How truly wonderful that you've made another happy memory together this Valentine's Day!<br /><br />JeanetteJeanette@Creating a Life Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16717273896278612876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5028673509424034947.post-6777191747720327902014-02-19T07:42:26.605-08:002014-02-19T07:42:26.605-08:00What a lovely party, Leslie!
