I’m so thankful for people like Lori Byerly (The Generous Wife) because she is such a marriage encourager. Every year she starts a countdown to Valentine’s Day a month out. I love it because it gets me thinking about what to do for Michael with plenty of time to plan.

• Do I want to make him a dessert he likes?
• A special dinner with special dessert? (wink wink)
• A several day surprise (like 12 days of Christmas)?
• Take him out to eat the weekend before or after (he hates crowds, so Valentine’s Day is out of the question )

So now, thanks to Lori, I’m thinking about Valentine’s Day and beginning to do some searching for some good ideas. It’d be nice to do something different this year.

What are you planning? Have you got any different ideas?

Until next time,
