The Secret Valentine’s Day Project
I completed the secret Valentine’s Day project for my boyfriend of 4 1/2 years and gave it to him last night. I created a That’s Amore book or the Unbelievably-Romantic He’s-Lucky-To-Have-Me book. I included pages of inspirational quotes, a list of things I love about him and why he would do well to marry me some day (i.e. I am awesome). I used scrapbooking material and did a somewhat sloppy job of binding the pages together. Still, it turned out well and he was impressed.
Before we met for dinner, my boyfriend coyly asked me , “What would you do if I bought you a Vespa. I told him I would kiss his feet and, at the time, I meant it but when he showed up with this Vespa as my Valentine’s Day gift, I was singing a very different tune:

Nice work on the book btw. I think it looks very professional.

Thanks Vanessa!
Kenneth, we celebrated it early this year (which some people tell me is bad luck) because of scheduling conflicts. Hey, at least it’s out of the way now!
