will you be our valentine? (phoenix children’s photographer)

“I don’t understand why Cupid was chosen to represent Valentine’s Day.  When I think about romance, the last thing on my mind is a short, chubby toddler coming at me with a weapon.”

Happy Valentine’s Day!  Last night we had a little incident.  Jackson was a bit confused, and it just broke my heart.  You see, in the month leading up to Christmas we had Nemo the Elf staying with us so he could watch over Jack and Addie and then report back to Santa.  When Christmas was over, Bob thought it best that Jack’s “buddies” (his tattered, extremely well loved bear that he has had since he was born) go back to the North Pole with Nemo.  After a few days and seeing that Jack very much missed his Buddies, I decided that he should return.   Fast forward to last night, when I hear Jack sobbing in his bed.  When I went to his room, he said, “Maybe if I hide buddies behind my back or in the bathroom Cupid won’t take him!”

I guess Cupid, in the mind of a three year old, is much like Nemo the Elf.  Apparently he takes children’s lovies.  How sad!  He broke my heart hearing his concern and saddness.  I of course reassured him that no one would take his beloved buddies and that he would be with us for some time.  All was well, and Jack happily asked where Cupid was this morning.

Happy Valentine’s Day, folks.
