Valentine’s Day is one of the days that I believe is dreaded by most men in this country. It is a day when they are expected to do something very romantic to prove to the women in their lives how much they are loved and appreciated. This holiday might have started as the holiday for lovers, but let’s face it, it has turned into a day that can make or break a man in any relationship. I have to admit that I am the type of woman that expects a little something from my husband on this day and the suffering he would endure would last at least until April. This is not because I need reassurance of his love and devotion, but because it makes me feel good to know that he has taken time away from his computers, video games, and TiVO to buy something that CAN’T be purchased at Best Buy.
Today, Brian had a dozen red roses delivered to my job and they made me feel like a princess. Thank you Brian! You have made it through Valentine’s Day and now you have a whole 5 months before our anniversary! I love you!
