I really wasn't planning on saying much on Valentine's day but decided why not... You see I am not a big fan of the "holiday"... it just seems so pointless... so commercialized! I guess maybe its because I see so many focus on sharing "the love" just one day out of the year. I want my family to know my love 24/7 365 days a year... do I always succeed? Not by my estimation! But my family and husband DO know I love them even when I am acting unlovely! and the other thing... how does it make all my single friends feel. That they are unlovable? lonely? alone? I pray such is not the case because singleness is most definitely not a case of being unloved! I guess I just feel more comfortable showing my love for both family and friends throughout the year. (okay off my soapbox!)
That aside my hubby still likes to get me a card or write a little note and present me with something special. Do you know what that dear man did? He got me this: (picture removed at this time due to technical difficulties!)
Yes FRESH ASPARAGUS!
You see this is truly a gift of love as he detests the vegetable. In fact I am the only person in our family who likes it so I NEVER cook it!
Now I have a little asparagus love in my refrigerator awaiting a brief steam, a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon!!
(ON a side note...) remember yesterday's comment about the missing battery and charger to the camera? Well today the camera is missing, bag and all! It can really make a person question their sanity. I guess we will go on a search this evening once the whole gang gets home. More than likely the youngest will know exactly where it is since I took it with us to take pictures at his school's science fair.
