So I'm not a guru on marriage, kids, OR life. My hope, however, is that by sharing my random thoughts and experiences, you can at least be entertained. God help you if you're actually enlightened or glean any advice from the chaos that is my life.

Happy Valentine's Day!
Single or coupled, today's about LOVE! I choose to think it's not just about romantic love, but a day to celebrate all the people in your life that make you feel special the other 364 days of the year. For me that happens to primarily be my husband and children, but also my friends and other family as well.
A lot of people think that if you don't have a significant other, then Valentine's Day sucks. If you don't have anyone to make you feel special - then go make someone else feel special! ♥
Tonight the hubs and I cooked dinner for my grandparents while trying to keep the kids from destroying their non-baby-proof house. We had a great time, ate, laughed and told stories....then I kissed my kids and hubby goodnight, and they went home. I'm crashing on my grandparents' couch, munching on some Hershey kisses I found in the pantry, and getting my I.D. channel fix. I probably should have checked the date on the Hershey kisses, but hey, a little extra buzz off chocolate can't be a bad thing...right?
My grandma says I'm here to babysit them, but I don't have the heart to call it that. I prefer being called "the muscle." I mean, I DO workout...
Actually, I just thought my aunt might want to spend Valentine's Day with HER hubs, since she's been sleeping here every night. I see my hubs every day, and we can go on a date whenever (hahaha!) so what difference does it make if we go out tonight? None. And like I said, today doesn't always HAVE to be about romance, it can just be about the little things that let people know you love them.
So don't mope around if you're unattached! Once you ARE attached, you're just as indifferent to the balloons, chocolate, and flowers. They're nice, but I like balloons on my birthday, flowers just because it's Tuesday, and chocolate everyday!
Happy Valentine's Day!

P.S. If you ARE on a hot date tonight....then get off the Internet and do your thing, crazy!
P.P.S. If your night is more "Hershey kisses & chillin' on the couch" like mine, and you'd like a love story to read in honor of our holiday, then check out these posts! ;)
