Valentine's Day Isn't Just for Grown Ups!

In celebrating Valentine's Day I always made it a point to have little Valentine surprises for my three children from my husband and I.  The joy on their little faces when they came home from school and looked on their beds to find a card and a small gift was priceless.  I'd set the dinner table with a table cloth, linen napkins and china.  They felt so special.

We've continued the tradition even though they're all teenagers now and one is in college.  They still enjoy receiving a card with a chocolate bar or pair of  heart socks.  I still enjoy the looks on their faces.  It doesn't have to cost a small fortune to celebrate Valentine's Day.  If you want to spend a small fortune by all means go ahead!  The important thing is to let the special people in your life know they are loved.  Simply do what you learned in kindergarten, show and tell!
