Roses on Valentine's Day

Valentine's Day 2008

Brad gave Emma and me roses for Valentine's Day this year, which pleased Emma immensly. She asked her daddy specifically for roses, because roses are her "favorite flower." I was also pleased with the thoughtful gift from Brad, especially the card that came with the roses. I love cards! Brad always knows what I like best.

"To my wife on Valentine's Day,
Feel treasured, feel beautiful because that's what you are and always will be to me..."


I knew that Brad didn't want something Valentine's Dayish for Valentine's Day, so I bought him something that I knew he would like: a new Jump Drive for his computer. Very romantic, eh? He appreciated the gift very much, more so than if I had gotten him a box of chocolates or a plush Valentine's bear.

But of course, the best present of all was having each other. We don't need Valentine's Day to declare our love-- we do that every day. I'm very happy to be married to my Brad.
