First of all these sweet bloggers have asked us to help spread the word about one sweet ten-month-old boy, Teddy, and the disease he’s fighting. It’s called Menkes Syndrome or “kinky hair syndrome”. It’s a rare genetic disease that affects approximately 1 in 450,000 male babies. It is a terminal disease and there are currently only a handful of documented cases in the entire United States.
We were asked to share his story so that we can create more awareness about this horrible disease. Teddy’s mom created a Caring Bridge site to help keep family and friends informed. Go check out his page and please please be praying for this little guy and his parents.

My THREE cuties before school yesterday morning. I posted this picture on Instagram saying that I was thankful they would still all wear a valentine shirt. After reading your comments, it seems like I have several more years of this!!! Wahoo! My mommy heart needed to hear this yesterday. 🙂

After preschool yesterday, I had Nixon, Bowen, and Smith. We went through a couple of Nixon’s valentines. LOVED this one!!
Then we sang some Frozen songs. They especially enjoyed the “Frozen Heart” and “In Summer”.
We played at the park because it was BEAUTIFUL outside!!
I was a bit panicked because I thought we’d lost a shoe. I found it when we got home…thank goodness!
We even went on a little nature walk.

Hope you have a GREAT weekend!!
Follow me on Instagram. I’m “slaughteren”.
Those boys are just so precious! People might think 3 boys are a handful…but I think they are all just so sweet and so much fun! Happy Valentine's Day! XOXO
I was sad this year because my nine-year-old did not want to take Valentines, it was optional in his class. First time in a decade that we had not made anything! But last night he decided (last minute, natch) to hand out pops, so I kept brainstorming funny "boy-type" quotes to put on the labels and he said, "What about just putting, 'Happy Valentine's Day. From: Cooper." So that is what we did. Ah, little boys.
Happy Love Day!
