This is the time of the season our
thoughts turn to that special person.
Flowers at the office and candy waiting
at the door is a wonderful start...
(Did I say start? That's right!)
The time we spend with our special
valentine outside of special events
makes everyday special. This is the person with whom
we share our deepest thoughts and dreams. We trust
them to be very delicate with our hearts. Time to
communicate our love, joy and fears is essential in a
healthy relationship. This Valentine's Day after sending
the flowers, take the time to take that loved one
to the place the flowers grow.
