Eeek! Last Minute Valentine by Janie Reinart
Hurray! Today’s the day.
And I’m ready.
Bubba…what’s…
in your mouth?
Eeek!
That valentine candy was for Mom!
Now what am I going to do?
Hmmm.
I know…
flowers.
Mom loves flowers.
Bubba…where…
are you?
CRASH!
Eeek!
Those flowers were for Mom!
Now what am I going to do?
Hmmm.
I know…
a valentine.
Mom loves cards.
Bubba…what…
are you doing in my room?
Eeek!
That valentine was for Mom!
Now what am I going to do?
Hmmm.
Maybe I should make something for
Bubba and Mom.
I know…
heart-shaped cookies.
Bubba and Mom love cookies.
Bubba…Bubba…where…
are you?
Eeek!
How did you reach that plate?
Crumbs. Only crumbs.
Now what am I going to do?
Mom will be home any minute.
Out the window, Bubba makes tracks
in the snow.
Hmmm.
I know…
Bubba follows after me outside.
We make a big heart in the snow and fill the
heart with seeds.
Birds fly into our yard from all
over the neighborhood.
I give Mom a…
birdy valentine.
Hurray!
Happy Valentines Day!
Bubba… Bubba…
STOP!
Eeeek!
