Valentine's Day

This Valentine's Day, I wanted to do something different.

So I bought some erasers,

{pardon my photography skills} 

some lollipops,

 

some chocolate,

 some stickers

some candy,

 

printed a little message,

 

 wrote cards,

 and put them all in little bags.

 

 Then I went around our neighborhood and dropped them in my neighbors' mailboxes.

And you know what? I discovered that once in a while it's good to turn the tables. It's good to give instead of receive. I spent some of my own money and a lot of my time for people I don't know very well, and I know I won't receive credit for it. But today is a day that celebrates love, and part of love is doing nice things for people, even if it requires a lot of work on your part and even if you get nothing in return. So I encourage you to do just that. Do something nice for someone and don't expect anything back. I promise you, it'll be absolutely worth it. :)
