I’m not one for Valentine’s Day. I think it’s a crappy holiday designed to put undo pressure on a lot of couples and undo sadness on those who aren’t in a couple but want to be.
I like the idea of celebrating your loved one (or loved ones if you include your kids in the celebration); but shouldn’t you be celebrating your loved one every day? I’m not saying go out and get a card or buy candy and flowers for your loved ones every day – but definitely make them feel loved every day!!
Alright, now that I sound like the Scrooge of Valentine’s Day…let me just say, that I can also sit back and reflect on what a wonderful guy I have. And how incredibly lucky I am to have found him! (And even more lucky that I haven’t scared him away yet 😉 ) And I’m glad to have a day to devote to him …and to let him know how I feel. (BUT – I still hope I make him feel like that every day…not just today.)
Happy Valentine’s Day, Mike! I love you – today and every day. 🙂

YES to everyday! Your wisdom Makes My Monday, Nancy! Thanks for playing along!
Stupid, asinine Holiday. Brian and I boycotted it the first year we were married.
I had to get some Capri Suns for my kids party and the woman who checked me out asked “how is your Valentine’s Day going?” I replied, “I don’t celebrate it, I find it an insipid Holiday for men and a degrading Holiday for women.”
She just stared. lol
Uh…Happy Valentine’s Day!
😉
And, his momma made him that way! Grin. Love you guys.
Too funny that we both used the word “sappy” in our V’day posts. lol
I totally agree with your sentiments.
