to be a review of what <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">I<\/span> got for Valentine\u2019s Day.\u00a0 Just wanted to level-set.\u00a0 If you want to review your stuff, get your own blog.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s see\u2026<\/p>\n<p>There was the dozen hot pink roses from Hubby, actually put in a vase of water, and waiting on the kitchen table along with a card when I came down that morning.<\/p>\n<p>Then there was the championship\u00a0basketball game that Sissy gave\u00a0me.\u00a0 <em>Listen, I\u2019ve thought a lot about <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/newstayathomemom.com\/most-embarrassing-moment\/\"><em>the technical foul called against<\/em><\/a><em> me during the last game and I\u2019ve concluded it was the result of me wearing the wrong shoes on the court.\u00a0 So for the big Valentine\u2019s Day championship game, I switched it up and wore something more appropriate.\u00a0 Then, when I spotted coach that evening, I told him I was wearing the right shoes and to put me in!\u00a0 Hahahahahaha.\u00a0 Then I laughed maniacally like that which caused coach to back up slowly.\u00a0 No matter.\u00a0 We won!\u00a0 This was most likely because I was wearing a thematic red scarf\u00a0AND the right shoes.\u00a0 AND because I\u2019m funny.\u00a0 AND because the girls played their hearts out.\u00a0 It was Valentine\u2019s Day afterall so the heart thing tied in nicely. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Finally, there was the gift from Sonny I\u2019ve come to call: The Ninja Deathstar of Love.<\/p>\n<p><a

Sonny could have learned spelling and such.<\/p>\n<p>But pay that no never mind because this thing is an engineering marvel!\u00a0\u00a0With a few tugs in all the right places, it transforms from
