Things I love about Valentine's Day:
The colors: pink and red! You can't do better than that.
Being at a school: the teachers have been wearing pink and red all week. There are hearts upon hearts. Everywhere you look, you know it is February and I love that.
Children: they are all so excited. One girl raised her hand and politely wondered if there was going to be a time for her to ask everyone which color they wanted so she would know which Valentine to give them. I suggested she do that at recess....
People who love children: I got an email letting me know that if someone is distraught about not having Valentines, let her know. I have extra Valentine's myself. I'm pretty sure everyone does and you can't help getting a boost from being around such kind people every day.
Adam: my favorite valentine. I love that his immediate posture is kindness and generosity. I love how critically he thinks about things. He never blindly goes along with anything. (The guy doesn't have a partisan bone in his body--except maybe for the Seattle Mariners.) I love how funny he is and I love listening to him read (although it often puts me to sleep).
Our party tonight: we're having 5 other couples over for dinner and we're going to play the Newlywed game. I'm more invested in setting and decorating the table than the dinner. It will be fun.
Erin: Happy birthday! I love that your birthday is on such a love-ly day.

Thank you Therm! And your v-day party sounds so fun!
You are my favorite Valentine as well. One of my favorite things is the way you decorate the table for the Valentine's Day party.
Please send a photo of your decorated table. I'm sure it will be a beautiful sight.
I am sure your party was a raging success. What a fun idea! We call Marianne the party girl, but you are definitely one too!
