Boy, has Valentine’s Day taken a whole new meaning this year. Last year, Lucas took me to the Chart House for one of the best meals of my life and “wine and dined” me to my heart’s content. This year was a whole different story because all of us are sick! Ke’alohi came down with another upper respiratory infection and I had to take her to Urgent Care yesterday afternoon. I don’t know who gave it to whom this time, but I have it also and this morning Lucas woke up with a sore throat and stuffy nose. The Sayin’s are out of commission. Luckily, Lucas’ job let him work from home so that he could stay home with Ke’alohi while I went to work.
Work was busy like the beginning of the year always is but was extra special today since I got flowers sent to my office from the Hubby. And this was on top of the chocolate covered strawberries that were delivered to my office as a pre-Valentines Day treat (queue the ”ahhh” here). Once I got home, we tag teamed cooking dinner, eating and putting Ke’alohi to sleep. Though our night wasn’t the most romantic, it was our first as a family which made it special in it’s own little way.
