Happy Valentine's Day to You!

Valentine's Day will soon be here. How will you celebrate it this year? Will you send a Valentine's Day card to someone? Or maybe you'll send flowers. The traditional box of candy is always a nice touch. Maybe you'll plan a nice evening that includes dinner in a nice restaurant and soft music in the background. Or will you be the Valentine's Day equivalent of Ebenezer Scrooge and avoid the entire day?
Me? Although there is no “sweetheart” in my life to send me a “Will You Be Mine?” card on that day, I get a kick out of the whole thing. I love to decorate my house with touches of red heart shaped “thingies”, red napkins on the dining room table, and a big red heart attached to my front door to take the place of the Christmas wreath. I might even buy some nice red roses for myself, just because I want to.
But I love to see people send each other sentiments of love, even if it is only for one day. It makes me smile to think about the days when my son was just a little guy and I would get the darling home made Valentine's Day card from him. We would always get the obligatory box of cards for him to sign and hand out to his classmates in school. Of course, I made sure that he got his own little heart shaped box of chocolates from his mom with lots of X's and O's in the card. It was such as sweet and fun time for us.
I know that there are a lot of people out there who complain that Valentine's Day is just the greeting card industry's way to get us to spend money on their products. But I have to say, if you would like to give someone a little token of your affection on that day, what gift can you possibly get for less than the cost of a greeting card? And many times, that is all it takes to put a smile on someone's face.
That's where A Little To The Left jumps in. We offer tasteful Valentine's Day cards for gay and lesbian couples to send to each other on this very special day.
Did you know that 188 million greeting cards are exchanged on Valentine's Day and that 50% of those cards are bought just 6 six days prior to the actual holiday? Do you know who Saint Valentine was? Here is a really fun site about Valentine's Day, I hope you enjoy it.
So from me to you, I wish you a very Happy Valentine's Day, this year and every year .
XOXOXOXO
