Valentine gift ideas

From Austen Dean on February 06, 2012 :: 11:16 am

In the old days (before kids) we used to buy each other gifts, but now we’re lucky if we have time to sneak off to Hallmark and grab a card without it being obvious to the other what’s going on.  We decided years ago to just make sure we picked a day that week to get a babysitter and grab some dinner. It’s not as romantic as getting some sweet gadget in the color red, but it works for us. It could be worse, though. There’s a funny quiz going around that makes me feel better about our boring v-day routine http://www.acrobat.com/formscentral/en/valentines.html?sdid=JOVXS
