Valentine’s Day is for Old Married Couples too!

Posted by Sara On February - 6 - 2009

 As I was going through all the Valentine’s pictures, this one immediately made me think of an old married couple.  Casey (left) is just sitting there waiting and Ashby (right) has that curled lip of frustration, such as a husband who has said the wrong thing again.  How many times has this happened to you on Valentine’s Day guys?  It’s because you forgot the roses right or maybe you took your wife to the sports bar down the road?

 

 

Let’s go on to our next picture, because Ashby’s outlook is much better as a husband or boyfriend!  To me he has this “I just got lucky” look on his face.  All the romantic guys out there would say - “I got lucky the day I met you honey.”  Casey looks rather happy in the picture also.  

A lot of people say that Valentine’s Day is a commercial holiday and they just don’t want to participate.  And while that might be a true statement, there are some good reasons to participate in Valentine’s day.  Number one reason - You don’t want to end up in the dog house!  But really, relationships are hard and we are supposed to work on them every day and give 100% and for those of you who do, good for you.  But for the rest of us, Valentine’s Day is a nice day to say to some one you love, “I Love You.”  The simple gestures of a card or dinner or flowers are part of the little things that just make your partner smile!  You might see a smile you’ve not seen in a long time.

Valentine’s Day is not just for couples either!  So many people can get down or discouraged on VDay, but think back to those days in grade school where everyone got a Valentine and the teacher got the carnation.  So, sending a card to a friend, flowers to your parents, or buying your dogs that extra special doggy treat is a great celebration!  Enjoy Valentine’s Day!  Make it special in your own way!
