We usually who can pick the funniest card out (I won this year), grab a bite to eat, and maybe catch a movie if there is something out we have been wanting to see.
This year was different since he is in CO and I'm in AL. I guess we could have planned a meal and had FaceTime with each other, but we decided to go to Mikata's for dinner last Friday while he was in town-- Mikata means fun, right?
I had given Jackson a card before he left and wanted him to open it then, but he refused. He likes to wait on the day of the holiday or special occasion. He's good about that. I would have already ripped it open and looked inside. (I like cards and gifts.)
To be honest, I was kind of sad he didn't have a card ready for me when he came home, but did not say anything because it's just Valentines day. He didn't miss my birthday or Christmas.
Then yesterday I was surprised at this arrival at my front door.
(Please ignore the fuzzy pictures, I snapped it with my Photo booth right quick)
TULIPS, my favorite flowers of all time.
He does so good at surprising me.
Never a let down.
22 hours away, a few states up and over from me and he still manages to be the best Valentine ever!
I'm so happy he's my forever and ever amen Valentine.
Love you Jackson!
Happy Valentines Day to all you lovers out there.
Life is good.
