A Thank you to My Valentine

Dear Valentine,

You surprised me, yet again, with your thoughtfulness and care.

Valentine’s Day really crept up on me. With all the snow storms and flight problems…the long days. Finishing work a half hour late just to take care of customers. Valentine’s Day was the last thing on my mind.

But you didn’t forget.

We had talked about not making it a big deal. Not like the party the year before with the girls – we didn’t have the girls this year. The fun and child delight just wasn’t there.

But the simple sweetness you provided anyway? Divine.

You most definitely surprised me with your gifts. I am reminded of your love, not just on Valentine’s Day, but every day before and after.

The beautiful card was the heart stopper.

I am typically used to not be a crier on sappy cards. In fact, I prided myself on my hard little heart and cynical ways. But you……you knocked down my outer crust. You broke the mold.

I cried reading your words to me, not because of sadness, but because of the great joy you fill my soul with. The security and peace you fill my heart with, your constant loyal ways. Besides who else can I text at 3am after I have had a vivid dream of dying? You are my faithful sponsor in every way.

How could YOU not be deserving of ME? I am not deserving of you. Thank you sweet Valentine. It is my desire to cherish you always, from the depths of my heart, I love you. 10-10-10

  1. Angelia,

    I have been reading many blogs about love and romance. I’m just the typical guy. I never thought I had that much of a romantic side until I met my present girlfriend. The Idea is to secretly have this blog and sometime in the future to give it to her as a present. This does not make me say things that will impress her, rather say things that come from my heart because I know she is not reading them now. I just wanted a little advice as to if I’m doing the right thing. I feel like she is my one true love and I wonder if I am going about things correctly. In other words, am I leaving anything out. If you have a chance just look things over. I love the way you write in yours and I just want her to be surprized and happy with this someday.

    Thank you very much,
    Garret Chambley (smilingjupiter)

    Angelia, I am so happy for you, but even happier fo my son! Look at the wonderful smile on his face and the sparkle in his eyes. You are the reason for his happiness. The warm fuzzy feeling he gets from knowing how much his family loves him pales to the knowledge that you are there for him!
    Love you both,
    Mom

  11. How sweet and touching. Really! No kidding! I had always been an ‘anti Valentine’ sorta person until my sweetie changed my thinking. He melts my heart all year long with surprises and love. Even after 30+ years.
    I wish for you all the love your future can hold. You learn from experience and things are better and stronger when you’re older.
    Blessings & Hugs.
    Oh. I’m loving what you’re doing with your camera. Don’t you just love having a really good one that does what you tell it to?!
