Valentine Love Tree

I cut out a simple tree trunk with bare branches, and then the girls stuck foam heart stickers all over the branches and trunk. (Stickers from the dollar spot at Target. Yay!)

I asked each of the girls what love means, and then I wrote down their reply on a heart and hung it from the bottom of their tree.

Cutie said: Love is when you say, "I love you," and then they give you a kiss.

Sweetie said: Love is when someone likes each other, and you just give them a hug.

We hung the finished pictures with red yarn and put them on the fridge.

Such sweetness!
