Anytime: Valentine's Day

I've written about this before, but thoughtfulness is probably my favorite quality in people. That being said, that is one of the many reasons I married my husband. My Brandon tops the list for being most definitely thoughtful. My husband has a great ability to make me feel special - and who doesn't want to feel special on Valentine's Day? Since we started dating back in high school, Brandon has always sent me flowers. Since I also teach school, Brandon sent Valentine's flowers to school. The school secretary brought a special delivery to my room Friday afternoon. A gorgeous bouquet of flowers!

Check out how they box them up and ship them! The flowers started out closed up and small.

But later that night opened up and look beautiful on my desk at home!

When I got home from school that day I had a wedding consultation at my house. Once the couple left, my husband came to my office and had gotten me one of my favorites - a "Double Doozie" cookie from the American Cookie Factory. A horrible, horrible favorite that I'd never buy for myself, but when someone spoils you with a chocolately, frosting filled cookie of goodness... you HAVE to eat it!

While my husband begged to exchange Valentine gifts on Friday night, I insisted we wait until the REAL day. So Saturday night rolls around, midnight on the dot mind you, and guess who asks to exchange gifts? I didn't give him my gifts yet, but I got one of mine - the cutest pair of new flats! Brandon nervously gave them to me and said, "I can't believe I'm supporting your habit!"

On Sunday we finally exchanged our gifts and he got me the most darling paper weight for my office - a fake, gigantic diamond ring. I thought it was the perfect gift for a wedding photographer! And of course I received a few more lip glosses to support my addiction.

I love this guy and hope that everyone has someone or something in their life that makes them feel special. Happy Valentine's Day!
