Basically the same on the breakfast table this morning...

Youngest is getting a cute stuffed puppy and a heart bag of his favorite candy.
Oldest is getting a new teeshirt and a heart box of chocolates.

Both will love it! and feel loved and cherished.

I got each of my girls a valentines bag of Hershey Kisses & a card. However they won't get it today - DH is out of town and it's from both of us, I told them we'd celebrate when DH gets back, since it is for sweethearts!

We got both DS and DD Grumpy Bear care Bear- Valentines Day bear- he has little smootches all over him.
He's cute because he reminds me of DS when I kiss him.

My dd is away at college...I painted and decorated a standing wooden bobble heart I got at a craft store, packed it in a box with a cute card and candy and mailed it off a few days ago.
For my ds and dh I made red heart sugar cookies and packed them in valentine chinese take-out boxes from a craft store. I hid the cookies in my dh's backpack to take to work (he leaves for work 4:30am) and I also miss my ds leaving for work so while he wasn't looking I left it on his pillow.
I think they will smile.

I make homemade heart suckers and each kid gets one. We don't do lots of candy because we STILL have Halloween candy..ugh. They have too many stuffed toys too and they seem more than pleased with the sucker which is good for me

I don't do a lot of candy because my kids like the idea of candy more than the actual eating of it. I got each of them a tiny white stuffed bear that had a red rose with it and a small heart shaped sucker and some Hannah Montana make up. They got each other a stuffed animal and some candy(Peeps, nerds rope and small pack of M&M's).

I gave the kids CD's that they were wanting, along with some candy and cards. I am working this evening so I won't see them and DH. DH gave me a pretty heart neckless and a beautiful card. The kids gave me one too, which DH picked up for them to give. And I got the sweetest hug from DD when she got up this morning.

I got them each a thing of Valentine m&m's. I bought a thing of pink marshmallows and divided it up for them. I bought the girls Vday shirts. I also made them all special lunches w/ heart shaped sandwiches, shaped boiled eggs, and strawberry milk.

For dinner, I bought everyone (incl dh) a Vday balloon from Dollar Tree. We'll have a special dinner and for dessert there will be pink heart cupcakes, heart shaped cookies and strawberries to choose from. I LOOOOVE Valentine's Day! LOL

My three kids each got a beagle webkinz - I wrapped a big red bow around each neck, and put each one on a Valentine plate posed like they were eating little crackers (also on the plates). When the kids got home from school, the little doggies were in "their" places at the after school snack area. It was quite a hit!

(The webkinz were on sale for half price - apparently the beagles are "last year" webkinz!)
