I didn't realize how special Valentine's Day was this year until today. You see for Valentine's I gave my kids balloons. Mylee decided to take her balloon with her to her friends house and unfortunately ( or now I think fortunately), her balloon got away and floated into the sky. I was amazed at how Mylee was not upset by this. In fact she had a really positive attitude about it. She said " It's okay because the balloon is going to heaven" then she later commented "I think Grandma Helen likes balloons". This made me smile.
But it wasn't until today that I realized that February 14, 2009 was the day of my Grandma Helen's funeral and that day we all released balloons up into the sky, up to heaven.

This is the picture of Mylee with her balloon for Grandma Helen, three years ago the day of her funeral.
Kind of a tender moment for me now.
