Happy Valentine’s day to all you sweet baboo’s! Today, of course, is that special day where we attempt to communicate our love for the valentine in our life. Guys, if you have not yet purchased that valentine card shame on you and don‚Äôt rush out and buy this card.

You will have to work extra to make up for a card purchased on valentine’s day. Don’t think you can get away with a same day purchase. Believe me, women know the scent of same day purchases. You thought the ability of a dog to smell fear was impressive, try to present a valentine day card you just purchased at 7-11 on the way home from work.

Some time ago I started making cards. Yes, it is the Martha Stewart in me. I’m liable to start inside trading at some point but it’s the risk I will take to make that perfect card.

Since today is a day to celebrate love I close with some loving words:

Dear friends, we should love each other, because love comes from God. Everyone who loves has become God’s child and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love to us: He sent his one and only Son into the world so that we could have life through him. This is what real love is: It is not our love for God; it is God’s love for us in sending his Son to be the way to take away our sins. Dear friends, if God loved us that much we also should love each other. No one has ever seen God, but if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is made perfect in us. We know that we live in God and he lives in us, because he gave us his Spirit. We have seen and can testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God has God living inside, and that person lives in God. And so we know the love that God has for us, and we trust that love. God is love. Those who live in love live in God, and God lives in them. (1 John 4:7-16 NCV)
