Day of Love..

Wow it's been too long since I last blogged.  Looks like i'm slipping a little on my resolution, but I believe I can still achieve it :)  Considering its the 14th of February, and you probably haven't read enough statuses about "Love", I will give you one more thing to read hehe.  So I must admit that I used to be one of those who dreaded Valentine's Day.  I dreaded the statuses, the pictures, the flowers, the candy, the cards, and the constant reminder that I was single.  I of course wasn't deprived of love because I had friends and family who loved me and was so thankful for them on this day., but if you are single you long to have a significant other to share this day with.  Well this year I can say that I do have someone to share it with.  I get to share it with the love of my life.  The man who makes me happier than I ever thought I could possibly be.  The man who has me thanking God each and everyday for placing him in my life.  He has shown me what true love is and I will never be able to repay him for that.  With this being our first Valentine's Day together I of course thought we should do something big.  But after thinking about it and talking with him we "promised" not to get each other anything, which if he goes back on that word he is in trouble :)  We are just going to cook dinner and spend time together with each other and of course with our newest little puppy Macy!  I told him that today is just a day, a day that the card/chocolate/flower companies make millions of dollars.  The day that restaurants are packed with people, movie theaters are filled with singles watching slasher movies, and a day that can be so terrible to those who used to be like me, single and looking for love.  Love is not just a one day thing, and I can definitely preach to that.  I have and will always love him no matter what the day is.  So, I guess today I will look at it as any other day, but I will be extra thankful for him because he has given me the greatest gift that no money can buy...he has given me his heart and I have given him mine.  I Love you Andrew and Happy Valentine's Day..can't wait for the all the days of love that are to come for us :)

.God Bless.
