Valentines Day!

So I am sure that Valentine's Day for some of ya'll is a wonderful romantic day, I felt the same til I had kids in school! I have now become the Valentine's Day scrooge. This is due to the fact that I have to spend the night before Valentine's Day writing out 35 different Valentines for kids that cannot even read what they say, and unless there is candy involved they want nothing to do with it! The other fun thing is going to Target that same night and fighting the 1,000's of people (mainly men) buying last minute gifts for their wives so they can check it off their list. Now I am sure that there are some guys who truly love buying flowers and cards for their wife, but lets face it, for most men it is a last minute stop so they will not miss out on the "romance" of Valentine's night!:) On returning home from this wonderful trip I told my husband to please never be one of those men! I did get to enjoy a wonderful dinner with Mark and some friends that helped me recover from the day. So in conclusion, yes I was bitter, but I have recovered for now until next year when Parker is in kindergarten and I actually have to attend a party!
