Happy Valentine's Day (Or Is It?)

Don't know what it is, but after having a child, occasions such as Valentine's Day don't seem as important. Of course I still love MSO but it just feels different. Made a comment yesterday to a co-worker that buying a gift for this day (or even a card...nah, I made a card) seems ridiculous when you think about what parents have to pay for their children's education. We're still a wee bit away from those days but you gotta start thinking about it already, you know?
And making a card is another thing...Is it really "cheap" for someone to make a card rather than buy one although a card may cost $1.50 as that same co-worker mentioned? I think not. Making a card takes time and effort. You gotta plan the design out, think what colors to use, and what you're going to write instead of using Mr. Hallmark's words of love.
Well, enjoy your Valentine's Day! =S

I think getting married has an effect on Valentine's Day as well.
