I've been married almost 20 years. My husband and I have been together as a couple for 24 years. We have lived in 9 different homes and 6 different cities. We have 6 children. We don't need a Hallmark holiday to share our love with one another. In fact, I believe the quote below summarizes my feelings on this holiday pretty darn well.
And just for your pure enjoyment because I feel like I gave a false impression on my personal Facebook page yesterday evening by posting this blurry photo (below) that misrepresented how I truly feel about Valentines Day. I posted the photo after child #6 completed her Valentines with the caption "Valentine, You make my heart Pop"
After posting the photo, a friend left a comment --- "Awesome idea!! I can only hope I'm half as a good of a mommy as you are..." Here's the reality. Yesterday I was driving down the freeway about 2pm when it dawned on me that Valentines Day was tomorrow and that I'd have to come up with Valentine cards for child #6 to deliver to her classmates. I went to the grocery store and looked at the options -- BLAH! In the evening I went on Pinterest and found the idea above; I had a case of microwave popcorn from Costco in my pantry, had red card stock in the craft bin and clicked a link that I'd found through Google with the above sayings so I could print them off. This was no SUPERMOM Valentine craft. Just a last ditch effort to get this project off my to do list. But they did turn out pretty cute wouldn't you agree?
