My Birthday otherwise known as Valentine’s Day!

Valentine’s Day to me is the world of marketing all coming together to remind everyone who has ever met me that my birthday is coming!  I’m sort of kidding.

As a child I was special because I was born on the day of Love!  This special feeling lasted until…. well to be really honest I’m still feelin it.

My Mom and Dad both made a big deal about my birthday and we always celebrated me being their ‘love child’.

I loved the whole idea of sending a Valentine to the boy you had a crush on and hoping he reciprocated.  It took a lot of nerve to actually put the card in the mailbag.

I don’t know if being born on Valentine’s Day is why I love romance but it sure helps.

I will spend the day ballroom dancing, flirting, meeting in secret places for just one passionate kiss and when the oven buzzer goes off and I find myself standing in the kitchen, not the woods with a white horse and ridiculously handsome man next to me, I will take the cupcakes out of the oven and watch my two love children ice them with pink frosting.  Perfect!
