My Funny Valentine

I have the best Valentine every year. He is not the hopeless romantic type... or even the helpless romantic. He is the type that will poke fun of every mushy situation that has anything to do with romance, but somehow keep my heart fluttering. My perfect Valentine! So, I thought I would post some of his funny notes that he has sent to me in the past (while we were dating/courting). This is my funny Valentine in a nutshell:

He once sent me flowers for Easter (that's right, Easter... my man sent me flowers for Easter), and the note read this, "Beware of suspicious bunny rabbits with fangs and claws and red eye balls. Love Ya."

He sent me roses one day, just because, and the note read this, "Have a happy day. I love you more than bananas."

What a ham, right? Well, not always. While he maintains that this next one was meant to be funny, I see pure poetic love that slipped out of him one day. He wrote this note in my daily planner on a date that was months ahead, "Hi Vanessa! Like the desert sun, your smile delivers a penetrating warmth. It delivers a joy that strikes deep within, and leaves me hopelessly smitten with desire. Hope you have a great day. I love you." Pretty romantic, eh?
I chose not to post his most romantic notes and letters as they are pretty dang personal, but still brimming with wit and humor; plus he would probably maim me for doing so.

I love you Matt, my wonderful and funny Valentine! Happy Valentines Day!


I am also very excited that I have a new Valentine to love unconditionally this year! Happy Valentines Day to my newest little Valentine, Brooklyn!

Looks like Matt is "Diggin' for Something" too! Love the pictures! Matt never ceases to amaze me. He's a goof ball but he's hard not to love.

You all are great!

Happy Belated Valentines Day!
