ebruary is often
referred to as the
month of love
because it’s the month we celebrate Valentine’s Day. It’s a fun month to share our love with our partners, friends, and family. We also can express our love even when Valentine’s Day has come and gone. I’m not just talking about giving gifts but sharing how much we love and appreciate the people closest to us. You know how great it feels when someone you love reaches out
for no specific reason, just to share how much they love and care for you. Let’s remember that feeling and do the same for our loved ones every day of the year. Here are some ways we can show the most wonderful people in our lives our love.
Plan a fun date: Surprise your partner with a special night out, something unique, tickets to something special. Like a concert, theater, show, cooking class, paint night, dance class,
or tickets to a sports game.
Choose a thoughtful gift: Choose gifts that reflect your partner’s interests, something they want or need, something that shows you have put thought into it. Personalized gifts are always fun, like glasses, a mug, blanket, or a photo book.
Heartfelt letter: Sharing how much you care and appreciate them in a letter or card. This will blow them away!
Cook a romantic meal: Prepare your partner’s favorite meal, drink, dessert, and have a quiet nice dinner together.
Plan a romantic getaway: It could be a cabin retreat, nearby city, the beach, lake, sightseeing, dining out, wine tasting, or just spending quality time together to creating lasting memories.
Whatever you do for your loved ones this February should come from the heart. Show how much you love and cherish the wonderful people in your lives not only during this month of love but every month thereafter.
