Cupid Shuffle

Happy Valentines Day!!!

I hope all my blog readers out there had a very special day, whether celebrating with a lover, a friend, family, or your best pals. Lets face it, we all can use a little bit more love in our lives, from everyone!

Today was a great day, probably the best V-Day I've had, EVER.

And here are a few reasons why:

1. My sweet mama was my valentine yet again... 25 years and counting, I don't think she'll miss one year, and I secretly hope she doesn't!!! Chocolates (hand picked of course), a sweet card, and a beautiful picture and frame of me and my lovely brothers. I just love her to pieces. If there's one thing we can always count on, its the love we will have from our mothers (and you too Daddy :) ) She'll always be my number one valentine and I wouldn't have it any other way!

2. Apparently the new beau doesn't just celebrate things for one day, but he makes it last a WHOLE weekend. He wrote himself a whole honey-do's list for stuff around my house and completed it all. I mean, really? Who does that! SO SPECTACULAR.

3. I brought my mom some dark chocolate strawberries today at work, they are just our favorites, and she immediately opens up the box and says, "well, should we eat them?" Before I left the office they were all gone. Nothing like a sweet treat to make you feel a little better when you're feeling down.

4. The boy surprises me with not one bouquet of flowers, but TWO. And stays an extra day just to spend more time with me. I am so lucky.

5. I have the best friends in the world who know how hard last year was for me, and send me super cute treats today just because they want to make sure 2011 gets started off right. THANK YOU. (especially you, JK).

6. Evening "snack time" and "gossip girl" with the roomie tonight was so fun! As was hanging up all our old flowers to dry so we can keep them for keepsakes. OK, sappy, but we are just too cute. As is our flower filled house.

So to all you wonderful people who paused to make my day a bit more special, here is a great big hug and an even bigger THANK YOU.

I'm starting to feel pretty darn lucky and blessed these days. It must be because you're all in my life!

Love & Hugs,

T

Thanks, but I think I deserve more than 1/2 of a line given yesterday and my general mentorship of you..
