Do you have your Valentine’s Day gifts all ready to go? I have to admit, I haven’t even started yet. I have no idea what I’m going to get Pato.
I always want to do sweet and romantic with practicality, something he’ll use.
Pato knows not to buy me roses or flowers.
I’m too practical for that.
I actually get mad when he buys me roses. After all of these years he should know that personally, I hate wasting money on something that will die. A beautiful plant? Definitely. I can (attempt to) nurture it for years. A dozen roses, while beautiful, die.
Then I’m sad.
For Father’s Day one year I had the only picture that we have of his family with his dad, who passed away a couple of years ago, enlarged and put on canvas and framed. That meant something.
I’m thinking this year, if I hurry, that I might take the same picture and cut his dad out of it and design it with a picture of Pato.
He misses his dad and loves having the one picture up. I know I would love it if someone gave me a picture like with myself and grandma.
I’m thinking about using the saying through the eyes on it.
What are you getting your other half for Valentine’s Day?
I could definitely use some ideas in case I don’t have time to get my original idea made into reality for Valentine’s Day. The company I use for putting prints onto canvas is out of the US and it takes awhile to get here. That might be a better idea for Father’s Day again.
The kids are easy. I get them a little love sharing stuffed animal and a card from me.
Pato is not as easy.
