Words Mean so Much...

What was your favorite Valentine's Day gift?

A few years ago I received a gorgeous, leather Coach purse from my sweetie. I was afraid to use it. I knew it was very expensive and I was afraid I would spill something on it, lose it, that someone would steal it, etc. It sat in the box for many days. I am quite sure that I hurt my husband's feelings, although that was not my intention. I told him that I really needed to return it. It was just too. much. money. You know what he told me? He told me that he loved me and that I was worth. it. I deserved special things. This, my friends, was my favorite gift. The words. The man that I adore telling me that I was very special to him, even though I don't often feel that way about myself. I did return the purse and found one that I loved that was more reasonable BUT I will never forget how my sweetie made me feel. So very loved.
