You Should Be Kissed and Often….by Someone Who Knows How

I’ve never been a big fan of all the Valentines Day hubbub. I’ve always felt that it makes people feel pressured.  Nobody really needs that kind of pressure. But as my kiddo gets older, the holiday is growing on me.  We have never not celebrated Valentines day, but the thing is….

We tell each other we love one another every. single. day.  We hug every day. We kiss every day.

No we do not have a perfect relationship.  No one does.

I tell my kiddo that I love him every day. Several times.

The important thing is…..the people I love the most,  already know I love them.

So Valentines Day is just a day to celebrate all that.  I told Parker tonight, you should always eat by candle light on this day. And as we sat on our living room floor surrounded by about a hundred candles, eating calzones from Old Chicago and milk in wine glasses, he agreed wholeheartedly.
