would you like a "to" line?

on another, but similar, note:

all of this valentine talk makes me miss the days of homemade cardboard “mailboxes”.  maybe we’ll make ones for the family to put notes in this year as a new tradition.

how does your family make valentine’s day special?

my childhood friends always got a new pair of pajamas on heart day and i always thought that was such a fun idea....  and i was a little jealous.

talk soon,
