* Happy Cupid Day *

A dozen roses in the most beautiful colors of red, yellow and peach were delivered this afternoon, along with a card which read "You're still my Valentine." They were a total surprise. I am so blessed to have such a caring husband. I am often brought to tears just remembering all the kind things he has done for me.

This year marked my son's first year with an official girlfriend. He gave her one rose, a box of candy, a little heart pendant in a matchbox and a card. They spent the afternoon at a mega-mall in Portland which is half-way between her home and ours. Oh these long distance relationships can be a trial. I have not met the young lady, only spoken to her on the phone. She sounds so sweet and she just adores my son. How precious young love is.

Sounds like you had a lovely Valentines Day! And your son sure knows how to put together a nice gift. Not too much...not too little, just perfect! I'm sure he made his girlfriend's day. Have a great Sunday!

Yes, a hubby who still knows how to "woo" is a blessing. Is it a crazy feeling to know that your son has serious (semi-serious?) feelings about a woman other than yourself? Not having a son, I can't imagine...

My daughter and her boyfriend are celebrating tomorrow. She has a long distance relationship with him also...
