Wikipedia says that Valentines Day is "a holiday observed on February 14 honoring one or more early Christian martyr named Valentinus. The day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished." Blah Blah Blah I am not going to bore you with a ton of info that you will forget by this time nest year. I am going to give my opinion on it b/c it's what Keleigh's do best! YAY!
The years I spent in business managing retail stores Valentines day always made me sour. Usually a ton of guys running around with that deer in the headlights look freaked b/c there are no cards, flowers, or chocolates left. One guy said my wife will never forgive me if I don't bring something home....I suggested getting her some shampoo and conditioner, its practical...won't make her gain weight...and won't die. He didn't like it....so I sold him some really awful perfume and he went on his way. My future husband is going to love my on Valentines...why, b/c I think it's total crap. Tell me you love me year round, go to church with me, occasionally do something nice unexpected....I will follow him to the ends...srsly it's all it takes.
This crap has just gone too commercial well really like all holidays, but I think V-day annoys me the most. I would rather on any random day my kids make me a card....for no reason but they love me. I would rather my man pick wild flowers in a field for no other reason then b/c he loves me...it just means more then having to feel forced to show how much you love a person once a year. It's not special.
