happy valentine's day

I hope everyone had a happy day, surrounded by people that they love!

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I had my best Valentine's Day ever. (That's probably not saying a whole lot, as I can't think of many very memorable ones, but still...)

I got the best, most thoughtful gift from Marc -- I only wish I could take photos to post, but it hasn't arrived yet. He made me a Blurb book and I got to view it online. It's called

SPECIAL
BORING
FRAGILE (based on an Eva quote)

and on the inside it says: "a little valentine celebration of shared memories, jokes, tastes, secrets..."

It's funny, it's sweet, and it's tender. In other words, it's perfect.

That picture is so cute. I'm dying to see the book Marc made for you and am totally shocked at his thoughtfulness. What a great gift!

Great picture! I can't wait to hear all about this book- what a thoughtful gift! Hooray for the goodness!

Amy said...

Wow. Marc can really come up with good gifts, can't he? If the secrets aren't too secret, I hope you'll share when it comes! ;)

PS--I loved the letters to your kids. They were really sweet.

I want to see it. Sounds like the perfect gift. I love heart felt creations.

oooh I hope you can post some of the book, it sounds so great.

That is the perfect gift. Presents that are just stuff given because you need to find something are not actually gifts, they are things. I'm so happy you had a great day!

Good for you. I am glad that someone's husband is finally getting IT! You've been married longer, so I will give mine a few more years to catch up. It sounds like an awesome gift. Can't wait to see the photos.
