It's That Day

Happy Valentine's Day 2009! We don't make a big "to do" of it in our house (although the flowers in my kitchen do look nice!) but I didn't want it to go by without wishing you well. In fact, yesterday, Friday the 13th, has more significance for us than February 14th - Sabian and I had our first date on a Friday the 13th. As if that doesn't tell you enough! A Greek dinner and a viewing of the original Japanese version of Godzilla later and the rest, as they say, is history. It is fun to think, though, that this time next year we will have another someone in our family to love.

Here's hoping you are having a good day and at the very least, a relaxing one. So far we've been to a funeral (ah yes, THE way to say "Happy Valentine's Day, eh?!) and now we are headed to the beach to have some crab legs. It's a dreary day, but a glimpse of the sand and surf is good any day.

I am thankful for a thoughtful husband who, even though he's one of those "this is just a Hallmark holiday" kind of people, still indulges in a flower or two.
