If You’re Looking For Complete Honesty On Valentine’s Day, These Children Have You Covered
There are going to be moments in every child's life where they tell a white lie or two, but in general, they're known for being pretty honest people—especially in moments where you might have liked them not to be.
Valentine's Day is apparently no exception. While you might think that a valentine is meant to be sweet or express some great sentiment, these children decided that complete transparency and honesty would be a better route to take.
The Heart Wants What It Wants
It seems like someone has been paying attention in their American History class lately. At least he had the decency to list Teddy Roosevelt after he had listed all of his important friends and family.
You're Cool, But There's Room For Improvement
We've already established the person receiving this valentine is considered to be cool, so where is there left to go from here? Can you really go up from "cool" to something better?
Where There's A Spark, There's Chemistry
If a science teacher is asking their students to create Valentine's Day cards that are chemistry-related, they have to be expecting that students are going to use their creative sides.
Eye Spy A Humble Little Boy
This valentine may be for his mother, but he still found a way to work a few compliments into it for himself, which you have to respect. Mother makes good guacamole, and he uses his beautiful eyes to see that.
Make A Note For Next Time
It feels like there might be a bit of a hidden meaning to this valentine. Do we think Jackson would like his parents to make him whatever it was that he had for dinner on January 28th?
She Is Not Without Faults
Look, nobody is perfect. Miss Johnson is doing her best, and she has other powers besides her ability to use the Force when need be. Maybe she'll get on the Jedi Council one day.
Blame It On The Hormones
This little girl wrote her pregnant mother a Valentine's Day card to cheer her up, and dad decided to just let the chaos happen. Someone had to point out that mom's hormones were out of whack...better that it's daughter than the dad.
Fill In The Blanks Are Always Risky
Their teacher tried to make it as easy as possible for students to fill out this Valentine's Day poem. All they needed to do was come up with one word that fit. This child succeeded.
Thanks For Doing The Bare Minimum, Mom
Eventually, your children will get to the age where they can reflect on everything you've done for them and show their appreciation for you. This boy, however, is clearly not yet at that age.
Please Enjoy This Potato Portrait
Would you rather have a beautiful drawing of a potato that your child is proud of, or would rather receive a portrait of you that is probably not very flattering? Easy decision.
Sleep With One Eye Open
This is a thinly veiled threat if there ever was one. Their daughter may have distracted them with the bright colors and her declarations of love, but the threat is there too.
Seeing The World Through Red-Colored Glasses
This kid took the spirit of the holiday in a different direction, focusing on the color that's associated with the holiday rather than the actual feelings behind the special day.
Spreading The Love
Next time a teacher decides to set up a program with soldiers for students to send valentines to, maybe we should make sure to proofread those notes before they get sent to someone.
He's On The Back Burner For Now
Ashely is a woman who is keeping her options open. Nothing is set in stone when it comes to her. Kyle may be her boyfriend now, but if you wait a few weeks, she might deign to entertain you on the playground.
For A Mystery Woman
This is a product of parents and teachers encouraging students to give valentines to every child in the class. No one gets left out, but whoever received this one might have preferred to get nothing from Walker.
Take All The Help You Can Get
If you're already married, chances are the time to use a love potion on your husband has passed, but maybe Kody knows something about his teacher's marriage that we're not privy to.
It's Cheaper Than Buying A Mirror
A mirror might be expensive for a child to buy, but a piece of tinfoil can get the job done just as easily. Will it make mommy feel like she's looking in a funhouse mirror? Probably, but that's not the child's problem.
A Crime Has Been Committed
Dad took it upon himself to eat his child's Chex Mix, and now his family has turned against him. To console her mother, his daughter wrote this note to make up for the missing snacks.
You Can't Discipline Them For Young Love
One teacher confiscated a note that was being passed between two students but after reading it, it was hard to be upset when they were flirting through science-themed notes in the classroom.
Keep Up The Good Work
This is a card that definitely requires a little context in order to understand the extent of it. From what we've seen, we'll take a guess that mom once burped at the bus stop and brought shame on the family, but she hasn't done it since.
"This Is Serious"
This is not a laughing matter. Ryan poured his heart out to Alexis in this very detailed and well-written letter. It takes courage to put yourself out there as he did!
Illustrations Are Always Helpful
It never hurts your chances of finding love to be as specific as possible. Show off those drawing skills and add a little cartoon to your love note so you know the apple of your eye will understand.
Only Sometimes
We'd be curious to know when the times are that he doesn't love his mom, but that's a question she'll probably save for another day. Enjoy the glow of your child's temporary, occasional love.
There's Always Something To Apologize For
If you don't know what to write on a valentine, an apology is one route to take. Even if you didn't do anything wrong, you probably will in the future, so you can pay it forward.
Capturing Her True Essence
When the teacher suggested that the students draw something on their cards that their parents liked or would make them happy, numerous glasses of wine wasn't exactly what they had in mind.
So Teachers Are Allowed To Push Students
Note to self: teachers are allowed to push children, and they will eventually thank them for it. If the parents get upset, you can just use this note from their children as proof that it was fine.
Your Wife Will Love It
This is what you get for outsourcing the work without checking on production quality. This husband paid his daughter to make a card for his wife... Next year, he'll be doing it himself.
A Variety Of Emotions
There is a range of angsty emotions running through this classroom, which is how this teacher ended up with one lovely valentine, and one that reads "die the most painful death."
His Love Is Conditional
You may be under the impression that love is something that's unconditional—especially love between a parent and child—but this boy wants you to know that he has limits, and they shan't be tested.
I Hope You Have A Mundane Life
We're 99% certain this child meant "I hope nothing ever happens to you" as in you never get sick or never go away from them, but maybe they want their parent to have a boring life.
