I send my grown children, parents, sisters and nieces I love you's. Manny will usually bring me flowers several days before, or after. I love getting flowers but NOT on V Day. (You just paid twice what they were worth, and I'm a Clearance Girl at heart, so this is offensive to me!) I make dinner everyday, so making a "Special Meal" seems redundant, since I do that all the time!
Now, don't get me wrong, I love getting cards, flowers, chocolates! But I'd rather you brought them to me on a random day, one that tells me that you thought of ME that day. Not on the day that society is REMINDING you to bring me a token of your affection.
Manny has learned over the years that if he brings me a token today, he gets a sweet thank you and I go back to my everyday tasks, but for the flowers he brought me last week, he got a sincere thank you with a side dish of kisses! ;)
Roses Manny brought me last week!
We are the same way:-)
