Valentine's Day

i don't understand why avalentine's Day is so commercialised! I'm not a romantic person at all. I hate flowers and all these soppy messages their partners... yuck! But everyone is different I suppose! Valentine's Day is a day where I tend to scroll down social media pages very quickly. The pressure of having this picture perfect couples and how their marriage is so wonderful (when you kno exactly that it is not as wonderful as they claim it), it's just too much!

But who said Valentine's Day has to be the love that is between partners?? I believe it is love as a whole hence why since having my kids, I don't mind celebrating Valentine's Day. I only knew about pure, true love when I had my kids. They taught me it! I always look forward to Valentine's Day just because I love all the whispering between the kids about their surprise for Mummy and Daddy. And you know that it comes straight from the heart with just pure and innocent love. The way their face lit up when we go out for a meal or order their favourite take out (we rarely do take out or go out to eat). That's why I love celebrating Valentine's Day with my kids. Valentine's Day is so over commercialised and with social media pressure, the true meaning of the day is lost. Try and celebrate it with kids. See it through their eyes and you'll know what true love really is.
