February 14th, Not Always Special
Oh sweetheart.
Ordinarily Valentine’s Day is more of a woman’s day than a man’s… mens’ days are more like the world chess championships, supermodel competitions on pay-per-view, or anything involving eating or drinking in that order…
Yet this year I’m reminded of something special: The greatest Valentine’s Day ever, with you, in Australia.
I woke up a couple times during the night which is part of why I was so tired when you called 40 minutes ago… thinking about Australia and wanting to be in Australia. It isn’t because of the kangaroos.
You were handing me a large blue book you’d made.
At the top on the first page it said:
“CHRIS
“Happy Valentine’s Day!
“Just wanted to make you this to remind you of all the good times we have had. Hopefully it will be something you can look back on with fond memories.
“Thank you for being part of my life and for coming on all these amazing adventures with me. Here is to many more adventures to come.
“I love you Much.
[hand drawn red heart]
“JACQUI”
That wasn’t the best Valentine’s Day gift I ever received. You are.
