When it comes to Valentines Day, is it the thought or the gift that counts? Is recognition of Valentines Day important to you? What do you think?
My sister celebrated a Birthday this week and in our birthday chat she thanked me for a lovely card and my message (she is a very special person) and I said she was welcome and that sometimes I think the card and the words are more important than the gift. The next day when we spoke she said she had thought about what I had said and concluded that she may not actually be my sister because to her it’s the gift that counts! We had a good laugh, (and as I had sent her some gorgeous earrings I was OK) but it did get me thinking…
What do you think as we approach yet another ‘man-made’ celebration day? Is Valentines Day important to you – and why? Perhaps it was important at the courtship stage and is less important in the 10 plus years married phase -- or not? (My hubby and I fall into the later category and we celebrate by exchanging cards and either having dinner out together, or making a special meal at home).
If you like to celebrate it, do you prefer?
- A Card
- Flowers/Chocolates
- A Dinner date for two
- Jewellery
- Spa Treats
I’d love to know what you think…
Happy Valentines!
