backround

10 February 2011

The lovely holiday that makes you sweat is coming up......Valentines Day. Don't get me wrong, I think it is great to celerate love, whether if it's in a significant other, children, friends, family, etc, but we should be doing it year round. I love them all everyday so why should one day be different? I love spur of the moment things rather then a day advertising you to do something. For instance, I enjoy those days when Michael comes home with flowers 'just because' or there is a card laying in my car or on my pillow to just tell me he loves me. I love enjoy the spontenaity of that. If you celebrate Valentines Day, it's perfectly fine. I enjoy seeing others get gifts and have their men/woman gush all over them. I maybe spoiled and just get that all the time. I will however, spoil my friends. Your friends are your friends no matter what. They are always there for you and I think those are usually the people I tend to not thank enough. I did send out/going to give out, some friendly valentines to some special people in my life. Jake got into it too and is sending valentines in the mail to some of his friends. Most of course are girls, but I can't help it that my children are severly out numbered in the sex category. Apparently we are one of the rare ones that have only boys! =) I love it though! My one I guess major let down about Valentines Day is when I see others not get what they want. I feel like there are some men out there that need to take full advantage of Valentines Day and don't. My heart aches for those people because they deserve it more then most. That is why my agenda this year is to make those who are single (even if by choice) or that sometimes don't get enough recognition, to give them a special day! I am so very fortunate to have some of the most amazing people in my life and I am very grateful for how they have blessed me and made me a better person! God always puts people in your life that complete you. I feel like every where I go, I have people that always complete me and make me better. I try to be that for others as well.

I hope everyone shows a little extra love on Monday to show people in your life that you care. Even if it's just a silly card or a piece of candy. I guess you can never really hear "I love you" enough.
