What I didn&#8217;t realize was the frogs that I had to meet along the way.  I remember the Valentine&#8217;s Day that came and went with only disappointments.  Isn&#8217;t it just a Hallmark day?  I never wanted my children to every feel unloved or unthought of&#8230; ever.  So we explained Valentines as a Happy I love you day!  That they will always be loved and cherished whether they have &#8220;someone special&#8221; to celebrate Valentines or not.<\/p>\n<p>Of course I realize that someday (probably in the not so distant future) something special from mom and dad will not cut it&#8230; and unfortuately my sons will have hearts broken and there will not be much I can do.  But hopefully they will always know that Valentines Day is about love for each other.<\/p>\n<p>I am blessed to have a wonderful Valentine, who does think of making days special.  Thank God for all those frogs along the way&#8230; as they only made me truly appreciate my Prince.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, I hope that we think of someone who will be feeling blue on Valentines and maybe do a little something special for a single mom or dad&#8230; chocolates and a card could go a long way to making some feel extra special on a day we an often take forgranted the loves in our lives.<\/p>\n<p>Happy Valentines Day!<br \/>( Happy I Love  You Day!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every since I was a little girl I was a believer in the fairy tale&#8230; the prince finding his princess.
