Hello February Love is all around you. Don't forget to look.

I never considered Valentine’s Day just for lovers. When I was young my father always came home with something special not only for my mom but he always had something for me and my sister. I have always believed that February 14th is a day to celebrate your friends, family, and loved ones in your life. It is a day to say “thank you” to everyone you love and appreciate. I think everyone can participate in Valentine’s Day because everyone loves someone.

And if you aren’t feeling the love for anyone in particular on that day, take the day to love yourself. If Valentine’s Day is a day of love and thanks, then you should be the first on that list. On Valentine’s Day give yourself a little extra love because you deserve it.

Take time to think about your family. My parents and sister have been my support system throughout my whole life. They have been there for all the important moments in my life and will be there for all the future ones. In the busyness of life, we often forget to stop and say “thank you.” Make this day every year the day you make sure they know you love them.

Make sure to call, text or my fave is sending a silly gif to all my best friends. My friend’s new and old are there for me through good and bad. I love them unconditionally. I want them to know how they lift me up when I am feeling lost and with out their laughter I couldn’t make it through. Take a little time out of your day to let them know you love them.

And If you have a special someone, don’t forget to make sure you do something special, even if it is something small to say “I love you and thank you for all you do.” A little love goes a long way.

In spirit of Valentine’s Day and all the loves in my life I have put together some special gift ideas for you. And I want to say THANK YOU for all your support today and all through the year. Happy Valentine’s Day
