Many years ago Duane and I got tired of battling the crowds on Valentines Day. Instead we opted to stay home with our favorite people in the world! Duane declared this as one of his two dinner nights. (The other being Mother’s Day). This tradition is one that we all look forward to.
The night before I stayed up and hung up some decorations. When I woke the next morning someone or someone’s had been up in the wee hours decorating. Shadd, Poppet, and Lolly had woken up about two in the morning and hung up some sweet decorations and left valentine cards under all our pillows.
Duane made fajitas that we all voted were better than any restaurant! We lingered around the table talking after dinner was done. We all enjoyed the evening and now have another memory to add to the book of memories we are creating.
I’m going to miss it when all my children are grown and off enjoying Valentine’s Day with their spouses. Maybe we’ll be lingering around the table with grandchildren instead.
