Daddy's special Valentine pancakes

Eighteen years ago these happy little homeschoolers celebrated Valentine's Day with daddy's special pink heart-shaped pancakes. This year we celebrated Valentine's Day with a Sunday brunch and both our grown children were home for the special occasion along with their sweethearts. I miss our little ones running around the house in their footy-jammies giving hugs and kisses as they climbed into bed with us on those cold Vermont winter mornings. Those were wonderful days, but so are these seeing them grown and happy still!
