Its Valentines Day.....a day for remembering your loved ones. I sent our (from Lolo Rick and Lola L) greetings to my/our grandkids.. and to my former co-workers and friends. At lunch break, I drove out to buy a nicely worded card for Rickster.
While at work, Rick sent me a cute, cute E- V-card...the cartoon was singng off-tune ala american idol...I really liked the funny card...because the words being sung by the cartoon character were simple but very meaningful to us. I thought that was it.
Reaching home, I was surprised to see the dining table all set up...roses, candles, a real card...and best of all...once again, he prepared our valentines dinner which was very delicious! : fillet mignon steak, mashed potatoes with cheese, broccoli, garlic bread...and to cap it all..chocolate cake decorated w/ roses and double vanilla ice cream! How sweet of Rickster! I asked him to take photos first before we sat down to dine! Later, I told him to rest as I did the dishes.
This is our first valentines together as a married couple...and although we did not have any material gifts for each other, his gesture of doing something special for us (me especially) is really appreciated and priceless! I am sure I will be able to reciprocate this sweet gesture sometime soon! Well, truthfully, I do prepare special dishes for him on special occasions...so I may do it again on his birthday this April!
I look forward to spending more happy valentines with Rick...and hope that someda,y God willing, my family in Manila will be here to join us. ..that will be a big, big wow! I am sure it will happen!
