Valentine’s Day —

If Valentine’s day is a celebration of love and friendship, I can’t wait to see how many calls and messages I’m going to receive… HA! 

As far as I’m concerned, Valentine’s day falls on a Tuesday.  It’s just an ordinary day.  It’s very easy to get caught up in the moment — everywhere you go, the stores are decorated with hearts and cupids — plush bears — chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate, who could resist.   I’m so guilty..LOL

Cupid, if you’re out there, please help my girls find true love.  Thank you!

Did you know:  The first soon-to-be-cliché love poem is found in an English nursery rhyme compilation:   – 1784 –

The rose is red, the violet’s blue

The honey’s sweet, and so are you

Thou are my love and I am thine

I drew thee to my Valentine

The lot was cast and then I drew

And Fortune said it shou’d be you.

This reminds me of all the cute V-day cards. #love #love

When I was a kid, I would always ask my parents to buy me a box of Valentine cards, it was my favorite part.  Would you please be mine.  I’m nuts about you.  Be my Valentine.  Today, I still browse (not buy) the kiddie cards…  HA! Don’t judge!  😉

If only I was a kid again…

I’m 36 years old and I love giving and receiving cards, not just on v-day but any day throughout the year.  The ones who know me, will tell you, that all my gifts always come with a card.  I feel that a gift without a card is like the yin without the yang.  That’s just me… 🙂  (Did I just go off topic?)  LOL

I’m not going to criticise anyone for celebrating Valentine’s Day.  It’s a day to celebrate love and friendships.  To each their own…  Have fun with it and start new traditions.  😉

All I know for sure, is that I tell the ones I care about, that I love them everyday.  I don’t wait for specific calendar days to do so but that’s just me…  I LOVE YOU!

Don’t wait until tomorrow, tell them how you feel now.

Until tomorrow… Peace, Love & Chocolate.. xoxo
