Love Valentine's Day Style

Hello everybody.How has your past two weeks been?  Iv'e been both sick and working that I haven't had a chance to post.

I jumped on the band wagon for decorating for Valentine's Day. I really love this Holiday not for the overpriced flowers and candy that skyrockets cause it's in a heart shaped box.

But for what it stands for .LOVE.We can cutesy it up with hearts everywhere and red and pink colors even our desserts. 


I even added hearts to my cake plates with a darling little Cupid



But sometimes Love doesn't come wrapped in red roses  or a box of chocolates. But something so big it can not be contained.

Love is the greatest blessing on the Earth from God's Love of us to the Love we share with others.



Love blooms for everyone. Some of us don't have husbands, boyfriends or a significant other to shower attention on Valentine's Day.


Cupid doesn't care who gets hit with his arrow Love is Love in any form

I was thinking on the way home from work as I sat in traffic for two hours again what I could say  in this post that would mean something to someone not just pictures of a Valentine's Day tablescape.

My dearest friend Lisa commented to me that I do have several people I love and can honor on this day. First and foremost is Her and the friendship we share every day even though we are 1200 miles apart. 



And at the very top of my list of those I love more than anything on this planet is the Love I have for my God that he gave us life and the ability to LOVE

And then there are my sons whom I love so much it breaks my heart.

There are dear friends and family members even an ex husband that I LOVE. There are church members and co-workers,The women at my Braveheart Womens group, the checker at the store who knows how to bag my groceries so many more
And I can't forget my kids Cuddles and my little Cassie
                                                               my comfort and joys and great snugglers




It doesn't matter who we LOVE as long as we LOVE someone.



So go ahead and set a pretty table or decorate with hearts a plenty  

Open your heart to the amazing wonder of LOVE stretch it till it is about to burst then keep filling it up again and again with as much LOVE as you can

Tell that special someone just how much they mean to you show how much you LOVE them.

Whether it's with flowers ,candy ,dinner ,a card ,pretty table or just a wink or a hug.

Share a glass of wine or other bubbly


Tell them you love them with all your Heart

 So on this special day whoever is in your life show them            how important they are to you and how                                  they  mean so much to you not just today but                                             everyday.


So on this day I say I LOVE You and You mean the world to me. Lisa thank you for being such  blessing of Love to my heart.Happy Valentine's Day. Join us for all the great blogs and all the great ideas they are sharing in blogland like Candlelight your Supper,Between Naps on the Porch, Design Enthusiasm,Kathe with an E, Ivy and Elephants and so many more. LOVE to all of you.Susie

  4. Lovely post, Susie! I believe we love others because God first loved us. And I'm glad we have these special occasions to share the love with others. I think I have two of those same cherubs you have. I made three of them in ceramics; one for each of my guys. Thank you for sharing the love with us.

    Blessings,
    Sandi
