Happy Valentine's Day

I was never a fan of February 14th. When I was in high school, I detested the day and watched as all the beautiful girls got roses, candy, and cards from the admiring boys. (I was never one of those girls.) In college, I tried to make the best of "Single Awareness Day" and make a romantic dinner for my girl friends who were also single. Having been on both sides of Valentine's Day, I would definitely say that being in love and with the one you love on that day, makes it a million times better. I say that on the verge of going to Instacare again (I think it's strep this time), and unable to do anything but sit around. The thing that makes this day so great even though I feel like tearing my tonsils out, is I get to sit around and be lazy with the most wonderful, amazing boy I know. He comforts me, doesn't mind that I look like junk, or that I smell of garlic, and wants to be with me even though I'm a dead beat. I can't believe the amount of love this boy has for me. This morning he showed up at my doorstep with a piece of paper folded with my name on it and gave it to me (I felt all excited, like how I used to get in high school when I got a note from the boy I liked.) On the inside, he had written down all the reasons why he loved me. Now how's that for a great Valentine's Day gift?! I seriously think I got the better end of the deal in this engagement/marriage thing. :)

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!!! Enjoy it, even if you are single.
