Valentine’s Day success! (simple goal: completely achieved)

We are not big Valentine’s Day people but like to do something a little nice or extra when we can. We also have a 16m old and have been working opposite shifts this last year so any time we have together is much appreciated. I had a simple vision: a fancy mimosa lunch at home during baby’s nap time.

This morning I took LO to the grocery store to pick up ingredients and some pastries. Husband cleaned up while we were out. He did mealtime with her while I got lunch ready for us and once she was down, I quickly seared some nice salmon. We had a fancy table setting with a flower, mimosas, and the baby monitor while we sipped and enjoyed our meal. It was such a sweet good time! We did it!

Hope you other moms got to appreciate your loved ones and feel appreciated in return today.
