It's Valentine's Day

This morning, D. and I were out walking our dog. This is an unusual event, in that D. does not voluntarily get out of bed when it is still dark out. But today, he wanted to join my friend and me on our Tues/Thurs trail walk. After we parted ways with our friend and headed back, we passed a house with a balloon-covered car in front. A huge heart balloon and several red and white balloons surrounded a hand-written message: your the best thing that ever happened to me. As D. was awwwwwing and smiling, I just had to mention that it was too bad his or her admirer couldn't spell. But then I succumbed to the sweetness and said, "Wow. Isn't it nice that someone thinks that about that person?" D. put his arm around me and said, "I think that about you."



Me too, honey. Me too. You are the best thing that ever happened to me.

Aww. I love people who do things on Valentine's Day besides stuff their face with caramel and go out for Chinese.

Awwww. That's sweet. And it's awesome that he actually read your blog.

I would have felt compelled to point out the spelling error, too! But I'll take the sentiment.

You are lucky to have such a wonderful sweetheart. And he is lucky to have you.

Please not the your thing--it's too much.

That's incredibly sweet! What a sweet guy you have!

I'd have been hung up on the spelling thing....I'm bad that way.

Thanks!
