My daughter came home from school the other day, talking about having to go get Valentine’s Day cards. On a more philosophical note, my wife would say that sharing "love" on Valentine’s Day shouldn’t be about buying things, but rather showing love in our actions and efforts (i.e., consistent with a previous Valentine’s piece I wrote). In fact, my Dad would always come home with Valentine’s Day gifts, even a good one for me. Regardless, one thing that tradition did teach me is that Valentine’s Day isn’t all about the romantic type of love. Growing up, it was about love for our family, not just Mommy-Daddy romantic love.
