Love that quote from the poem... I kind of want to put that somewhere where I can see it every day. :) The closest I get to pet names are hon or babe. Cant stand those dumb sugar-sweet cheesy pet names.

I've always thought that movie was dumb, especially that line. The husband always gives the lovelies a heart shaped box of chocolates. Now that two have moved out of town, I have to send them something. He never gets around to anything until the day of the holiday. Molly is feeling better but not all the way.

It's just another day to me. I do try to have something little for the little ones, but they already know I love them each and every day. <br /><br />Now what I do love, your funny valentine poems, those are my kind of poetry.

And I agree that telling those we love how much we value them every day is much better than a card once a year. I'm doing a Valentine's day blog about my first Valentine from a boy -- which meant a lot to me -- but I've learned to Dr. Kathy McCoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02903015507894951725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-68716097381185649772013-02-10T13:39:23.335-05:002013-02-10T13:39:23.335-05:00There is an art to gifting and it absolutely does ...There is an art to gifting and it absolutely does involve knowing the person well. The hardest people to buy for are the people we like a lot, but don't feel we really KNOW. Gah. AND, the people who have reached that stage in life who pretty much buy the things that they want when they want them... egads. So, yes, gifting can be really tough.<br /><br />I love all of your insights on thisRobinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2600608370084874699.post-992038036899867552013-02-10T12:31:20.638-05:002013-02-10T12:31:20.638-05:00We think so much alike Pam that it's scary!I a...We think so much alike Pam that it's scary!I am with you totally.

I can make lots of pretty things with hearts. I love hearts, even my wedding ring is a heart. Do I think about that love garbage, Nope. It never comes into it. I make red and white cupcakes for my kids and grands. I try and make my husband's favorite meals the month of February. Just little things.

I'm with you, in that we should show love all year round, although it is nice to have a special day. But, of course, the drawback to that is, that is has just become so commercialized.
