Have you ever been the one woman in your office, school or neighborhood to not get flowers?!

    I have never seen valentines day as a romantic day. I believe that certain pre-determined dates such as anniversary are romantic, but not this day.

    I enjoy children's reactions the most on this day. They love choosing & giving Valentine cards and receiving candy hearts that they love reading.

    Everyday of the year we say "I Love You!!" But on Valentines day, we say a few extra ones.

    I am very happily married but still look at this day as kind of silly. My children love this day, so I enjoy how excited they get about getting Valentines from their friends at school.

    Silly or not I still look forward to "V-Day"! I enjoy sending cards out to special people in my life to let them know that they are close to my heart! This year I get to assist my grand-daughter with making her box for school and I'm just as excited as she is. My husband and I exchange home-made cards which is alot of fun!

    One year I was the only woman in my office to not get flowers! That was me! It was so depressing :( I feel like it is a lot of silly pressure.

    I look forward to Valentines Day. I love to watch the kids get so excited over some cute little things we pick up at the store. The day for me is silly but it is fun to send out cards and make people smile.

    If you do not love or are not loved the other 364 days of the year, Valentine's Day doesn't really make up for it. Our attitude and actions towards those we love should not be limited to a commercial holiday.
