Sharpie Dotted Cup

This is my baby’s first Valentine’s away at college.  I know it’s not a big holiday, but it’s always been a special one in our family.  Each year I’ve done something small, but personalized for my kiddos for Valentine’s Day.  I’m thrilled that my daughter gets along really well with her 3 roommates, so I’m…
