My Valentine

I’m not really much of a Valentine’s Day fan. In years past it held expectations I could never live up to; expectations for “gifts” to express one’s love.  I have always felt that love should be every day and the gifts of love don’t need to be bought.

This year, there were no expectations – just another day of love in my life. My valentine is Michael – and he is my valentine every single day. He wrote this really sweet list of things he wanted to say to me on Valentines Day. No one has ever written anything for me. It might sound corny, but it was just the best gift I could have gotten.  It was a profession of his love and feelings on the internet! So you know it’s gotta be true! (wink)

Well, I have my own list of things I want to say to my man on Valentines Day!

hearts1. You are without a doubt, the love of my life.

2. When I doubt myself, you bring me back. Thank you.

3. You make me laugh. Every single day. You have no idea how good that feels.

4. Craigs list rules!

5.  I’ve got some clean sheets! Wanna help me put em on or take em off?

6. Your touch still gives me goosebumps. Every time.

7. Your kisses do make everything all better.

8. The last time I saw you (a glance a moment ago) was like the first time.

9. How about you, me and a sunset?

10. I believe in you. I believe in me. I believe in us. <3

    I read this three times. My parents were so in love for 43 years. Best friends and they laughed all of the time. My dad would write notes like this to my mom–pre-internet. I have all of them–found them in a box after my Dad and Mom both passed away.

    I’m inspired by you in many ways. Love your spirit and love that you found love. Funny, I was just thinking that 8 years post divorce I am happy with what I’ve accomplished on my own and the fact that my kids are so great….but the relationship dept has been lacking. I often think it’s just not meant for me ’til I read your post.

    You rock.

    I am so incredibly flattered by your comment! It touched my heart to read that just now. Honestly, I wasn’t a big believer in love especially after being married and divorced. Michael changed all that just by being himself. He loved me just for being myself. What more can you ask for? It taught me that I had been doing it all wrong for years. I had tried too hard to get men to like or love me by being what I thought they wanted. No more was the promise I made to myself. Michael helped me keep my promise because I never tried to be anything but me – and he rejoiced in it!

    Just be you. Love will find you one way or another but you don’t want it to happen because you bent over backwards trying. You are a gorgeous, smart gal and I can’t imagine why someone hasn’t tried to snap you up! Must be the limited population in your hemisphere. ;)
