I personally think it is just a time to remember the ones you love. I don't expect jewelry (every year), nor do I expect flowers (though I really like them but you don't have to do roses). I do like to be noticed though. Just a little something like a hug in the kitchen or a "Happy Valentine's Day".
And that is what I got today. It was the perfect morning. We woke up early expecting for my son to have tutoring (as he does every Thursday morning at 7:30). But it was cancelled today. So I lay in my bed trying to wake up and the kids in their beds.
"Mom", my middle one says.
"Yeah", I reply.
"Happy Valentine's Day", she says.
"Happy Valentine's Day to you too!"
Then my son chimes in, "Happy Valentine's Day mom."
"Happy Valentine's Day to you son."
Then my youngest, "Happy Valentines day!"
"Happy Valentine's Day to you too, baby girl"
The best part of the whole exchange was that we were all still in our beds and the day hadn't even started.
My husband and I exchanged cards this morning over the first sips of coffee. Here was the card he gave me!
Yes we both snore and no we don't have sleep apnea.

I agree, today is to remember those whom we love.....and to vent about stupid class parties!
Totally agree!! It has become a candy holiday almost as bad as Halloween!
