    Great Valentine's Day Gifts

Valentine's Day Special Gift — 

The hubby and I have shared 22 Valentine's Days together.  In the early years, I often received a card with my favorite box of Fannie May.  After we got married and started adding kids to the family, we suddenly found ourselves frazzled and sleep-deprived.

I can't remember the year I received the best Valentine gift of all, but I do remember we had kid number three in the picture.  The hubby left a card on the counter before he went to work.  The usual Valentine candy was missing.

I opened the card and there was a nice message about how wonderful it was having three kids and a great life.  On the bottom, he mentioned that he was going to give me a massage later that night.

That night, the kids went to bed early and I walked into our room to discover an old blanket draped over the comforter.  Candles were lit and a glass of wine on the nightstand.  Sure enough, I received a wonderful massage and felt quite relaxed.

As every frazzled mom knows, there's nothing better than this.

And I'm throwing more hints to the hubby for the upcoming Valentine's day except this time, I want a jet ski. LOL
