Valentines Day.

SO, I am always amazed at how much more quickly my child is expected to do something than I was... like how calculus seems to be slowly creeping towards the kindergarten level. For example, I thought Miles would AT LEAST have until he was in school before having to do those annoying fundraisers that every parent hates because you have to beg your coworkers and family to buy some candy or other product. But no. Miles, not even three yet, is already on his THIRD fundraiser for his daycare, or 'school' as they prefer to be called. So, cookie dough anyone? Candy bar? Ugh.
Tomorrow at 'school', the kids are having their Valentines Day party, and Miles was asked to bring in 14 Valentines and treats for his classmates. Mom, ever excited at the opportunity to make something into a creative project, got struck by the idea to make these little treats while shopping for those cheesy tear-apart cards the kids are required to give.

I found the pink strawberry flavored marshmallows first, and the idea came together. They are just like my almost three-year-old: Super cute, sweet, and got completely filthy while having fun. Miles helped me make them and realllllly liked eating them too. Hope his classmates enjoy them as much!
