Did you have a good Valentine's Day? We had a little "pinterest" in our day. Starting with heart shaped cinnamon rolls.

| Original idea from here. |
For dinner we attempted the heart shaped biscuits, but honestly they didn't taste so good. Must have been the fact that I did bisquick instead of homemade. Or because we used it like 'playdough' before we baked them.

| Sadly, not my biscuits! You can find these 'here'. |
Today I was supposed to register Maisy for preschool. Fall registration begins early around here. But have to admit, I chickened out.
For the past three months I have been absolutely sure she would go. Then last week, something changed. And just like that I was positively sure she would not be going to preschool yet. She's only two! Now that Afton is in elementary school, I see how fast the "sweet days at home" pass. I feel like it's best for us to hold off for another year.
So we skipped registration and went on a run instead. Maisy ate her breakfast in the jogging stroller and sang to me while I trotted along. Then we played outside in the rain.
What did you do today? Did you change your mind (or your heart) about anything?
PS- Thank you to everyone who linked up to "Cowgirl Up!" this week.

Those cinnamon rolls look soooo good. I'm not domestic at all. I'm great at the drive-thru. Keep your babies as long as you can...I can still see my little boy crying when I dropped him off that first day. He's now 28. I miss the old days.
Thanks for the support Becky. Seems like most of life is spent as a 'grown up'. So school can wait:)
My oldest(3rd grader now)started preschool at 3 1/2 years. His little sister is now that age and like you, I am just not ready to start yet. I love having her here even if we are not doing a thing. Anyway, they have many years of school, why rush it!
Presentation of heart shaped cinnamon rolls and strawberries heart looks appealing. Love cinnamon foods. Your girls are sweet. Kindergarden/nursery days are the most happier to my experience. Kids have no worries, no homeworks.....but still learn things fast. Those are the happy days in house.... I valued it. Enjoy your good times while they's still small.
I just found your blog and LOVE it! I'm your newest follower :)

Probably a good call on the preschool. At least in my experience with all 3 kids, I'd try to put them in too soon only to find out they (or I), wasn't ready for it. Socially usually. Especially Sophia, tried 3 years in a row...she was far too shy. It wasn't until this year (third try) that she was finally ready. :) Enjoy that little sweetie, they are both adorable. Love the sweet rolls/hearts too.
Mmmm. You know I love me some heart-shaped food ;) And I don't blame you one bit for keeping Maisy at home another year. Just the thought of my babies starting school is enough to bring on the waterworks. They're only young once!
I got up really early because it was raining and my dag needed into the house since she is not bright enough to get inside her dog house yet. Then I stayed up because I couldn't sleep. I just read my Bible and started reading blogs and making breakfast. Now I will try to relax. Great decision. These kids are growing up too fast!
Ya'll are the best!! Thanks for the reassurance! I appreciate you taking the time to leave me such sweet comments.

I kept my youngest son home one extra year and never regretted it. Just like you said they grow so fast. Now that same son is 21 and I have 12 grandchildren! Wow what a change 10 years can make!!
I'm a prek teacher and I advocate so much for keeping kids at home as long as possible! If you are able and are willing keep her home for a least one more year. You won't regret the time you spend together!
your kid's name is Maisy? adorable!!!
I like the bead Valentine. :)
