valentines. it will be a day full of cheese-ball cliches and an overabundance of love, which i am really okay with. as iris says in the holiday, "i like corny. i'm looking for corny in my life". lay it on thick because i'm a sucker for romance.
mr. k wouldn't have you believe it, but he's even more of a romantic than i am. tomorrow will be mine and mr. k's second valentine's together. three valentines days ago, about 4 months before we began dating, home depot put together treat bags and valentine's cards for all the employees. there were a few extra on hand, and i was in a silly mood, so i addressed them to co-workers that were in the room and signed "heart, becky".
several months down the road (when we were dating) i was restlessly rummaging around in mr. k's room and found, tucked inside his treasure box, that valentine. i pulled it out and looked at him puzzled. he sheepishly looked to the floor and in that moment i wanted to laugh and cry and hug him and kiss him all at once.
i fall more in love with that goofy man every day.
i hope you have a merry valentine's, full of junk food, cheesy chick flicks, and some good lovin'.
heart,
mrs. k
