Yep, one of my favorite holidays is coming....Valentine's Day! I've learned it's (sadly) become a controversial holiday. People like to get their hackles up and complain about commercialism. Or that it's some Hallmark holiday. To me, it's a fun holiday about love, and silliness, and being sweet. Yes, we should all show our love and admiration daily, not just on this holiday. But I think it's fun to take a day to especially celebrate those relationships in our lives. (And I'm not just talking husbands or boyfriends!) I decorate my house in rich pinks and reds, I hand make valentines for family and friends. I bring candy to my coworkers and wear fuchsia on the 14th. This holiday makes me grin from ear to ear. And I can't wait till I can start decorating for it on the 1st!

you're so sweet! I love your teacup on your header.
ReplyDeletePeople get their knickers in a knot for such silly reasons. Make it what you want and leave everyone else alone is my advice. It was my grandmother's favorite holiday so I always looked forward to Valentine's Day because she made it special.
