THE Relationship Blog
Yes, the gift of vision. There is no better gift on Valentine’s Day. I say this only half-jokingly. As we age, our vision is slowly getting a little tricky. The TV set is getting farther and farther away. Our arms are a little too short to read a book. And the writing on the back of the kid’s fever medicine is completely impossible to read. So for Valentine’s Day, glasses are an appropriate gift. They get even better if you can get $6.95 prescription eyeglasses as opposed to spending a bunch of money for the glasses.
Valentine’s Day is odd for us. As relationship bloggers, we have many, many opinions on celebrations of love in general and Valentine’s Day in specific. We believe that devoting one day to say the things that you should be saying on a daily basis is silly. On the other hand, missing out on an opportunity to declare your love is unconscionable. So we make Valentine’s Day a day of love for the whole family with a beautiful meal that we call “fancy meal” which comes with dessert, of course. If there are presents, they need to truly address the love and intimacy that we have with our family.
