Yours truly, Mamarazzi, is asking the questions this week, and I want to talk about LOVE...


{1} How was your Valentine's Day?
{2} What is your favorite flower? Did your honey get them for you?
{3} Was Valentine's Day a big deal when you were a kid?
{4} Did you put up any Valentine's Day decorations? (bonus points for a picture)
{5} Do you have any Valentine's Day traditions?

{1} How was your Valentine's Day?
Well...it ended well. I had this FABULOUS idea that Coco should deliver Valentine balloons to Mima. I thought it would be adorable. So I tied the balloons to Coco's sweater and let her loosem thinking she would run up the steps and into the house to Mima.

I was wrong. Dead wrong. Coco did not like the balloons that were chasing her and freaked out. She went running and all i could imagine was her getting hit by a car or disappearing forever. It was 3 minutes of total horror. But we finally got a hold of her, after she pooped all over the place, and calmed her down.

So it was far less fabulous and adorable than it was suppose to be.

She and Big Daddy stopped speaking to me for a few hours. Big Daddy eventually forgave me and Coco is thinking about it.

HAPPY Valentine's Day...notice the terrified look on Coco's face and the way Mima is protecting her from the big bad balloons? Yep, mother of the year here.



{2} What is your favorite flower? Did your honey get them for you?
A lot of women got red roses for Valentine's Day this year. Unless this is your favorite flower I think it is silly. Let me tell you why. Men, being the silly little creatures that they are, automatically think that red roses are the best way to show a woman that they care. Why? I will tell you, too much TV. Yep, commercials. My opinion, get a woman her favorite flower IF your REALLY want to show her you care. Right?

OK, tangent over. I LOVE Gerbera Daisies..all shades of PINK. They are sturdy and last forever and are just cheerful! And no. I did not get any for Valentine's Day. But that is because I told Big Daddy not to waste money on flowers, unless it is an out of the blue, "just because" moment.



{3} Was Valentine's Day a big deal when you were a kid?
It was HUGE...picking out the perfect Valentines to pass out at school. Making and decorating my little Valentine mailbox out of a shoe box. Going through all of my Valentines over and over again. LOVED Valentine's Day...loved it!

{4} Did you put up any Valentine's Day decorations? (bonus points for a picture)
YES I decorated my Mantel and put a few little bits of Valentine goodness throughout the house. Nothing too terribly over the top.



{5} Do you have any Valentine's Day traditions?
Nope. We celebrated Valentine's Day in Feb 2010 it was awesome. In 2008 Big Daddy hijacked this here blog and wrote me a love letter it was awesome. As far as traditions go, we fly pretty fast and loose with Valentine's Day.

Here's the thing. We tell each other EVERYDAY how much we love each other. Big Daddy constantly reminds me of his love for me through the little things he does for me. Because the L-O-V-E is in the little details in life. The way he brings me a Tall Dark and Handsome when a Diet Pepsi from a fountain, over ice balls is exactly what I need. And how he places my pillows perfectly for me so that when I come to bed they are ready for me to snuggle down into. And how he opens doors for me, or tells me how pretty I am, how I can't walk past him without a kiss or a pat on the booty...it's all little but it all means so much. I never question how much he loves me, I KNOW he does...so if the occasional Valentine's Day is an epic fail I am totally cool with that.

Yep, really.

Looking forward to coming around and reading your answers!!
