Happy Valentines Day. I have to be honest, I'm not a huge fan of Valentines Day. I bought my husband a card, but usually we give each other the same card every year. We save the card and just keep giving it over and over and over. I know that sounds kind of stupid, but it's just something we do. I don't want him to give me roses because they never seem to open and blossom like I think they should. Their closed blooms always seem to droop and I feel like I've failed at being able to keep cut flowers "alive." Also, my favorite flower to have in a vase are tulips. He never seems to be able to find tulips on Valentines Day. I don't want him to give me candy, because, well... you know, the whole pants thing. So, this year he gave me music. He gave me 10 love songs to walk on the treadmill to. What a GREAT gift. (actually, I suggested it and picked out the songs), but he helped me download them. I didn't get him anything. I made his favorite dinner tonight, spaghetti and meatballs and a salad. I made a surprise of strawberries and chocolate pudding parfait. This actually tastes much better than it sounds.
I think it's nice there is a day set aside to celebrate love. I think it's GREAT my husband and I don't need a special day to celebrate our love. He makes me feel special and pretty everyday. I try to make him feel smart and strong everyday. And then we just laugh and look in the mirror and we know just who we are and we are happy.
