Will you give a Valentine to someone special this year? I will.
After many years of marriage, it’s easy for romance to slip as daily responsibilities take over: housework, kids, pets, jobs, bills, schedules, laundry and the countless little projects that demand attention. I’ll admit that’s been our life recently. But that can — and should — change.
What happened to that fairytale romance I dreamed of? Don’t get me wrong — my life is good and I feel blessed. Yet it’s remarkably easy to let the important, joyful parts of life slide while tending to urgent tasks, even when those tasks are good things.
Adding more responsibilities can quietly move you further away from the lighter, more romantic parts of life.
When you notice that spark dimming — when weeks go by without much fun or carefree moments — it’s time to bring it back.
Living intentionally with romance and keeping fun a priority in a relationship is my big resolution this year. It is the most important project I have.
These sweet plush velvet HeartGram™ hearts are a simple, elegant way to say “I love you” to someone special. This year I received the Turquoise and Lagoon HeartGram™ set and placed them in a silver bowl in the dining room. They’re adorable and delightfully squishable.
Every time I pass those plush hearts, I pause for a moment and remember what’s most important. They serve as a little “heart check” reminder in the midst of busy days.
Each HeartGram™ arrives in a kraft paper gift box with crinkle paper and a vintage-style postcard, tied with a satin ribbon. The postcard can be left blank for you to write a personal message, or you can request a handwritten note when ordering.
The limited edition HeartGram™ set in Turquoise and Lagoon includes a custom postcard designed by an artist. The available colors vary each season, offering a range of charming options to choose from.
