Selfie, How Should I Say It?

Today, Love Is In The Air

Oh, intoxicating love. Here comes your crazy, infectious, special day of whirlwind romance. A day where love struck humans fall under your spell willingly and celebrate you like the most priceless jewel on Earth.

Love, how should I say it? How can I say “I love you,” with the most beautiful, unforgettable of sparks? Like fireworks creating millions of brilliant stars in broad daylight with the music of the orchestra playing so passionately, honestly, purely that your heart pounds widely like it’s about to explode.

So, how should I say it?

Should I say it with her favorite brewed coffee sprinkled with a heart shape cinnamon sugar?

Should I say with a dozen roses? Will that sweep her off her feet? Will that make her smile with happy twinkle in her eyes?

Should I say it with an irresistible sweetness of chocolates? I heard chocolate works like a magic love potion that makes the heart flutter and fall in love. Will those truffles melt her heart?

What about those huggable stuffed toys? Will she kiss this adorable frog and magically turn him not only into a prince but the happiest prince in all the land?

Should I say it with balloons? The other day, while at a store she told me excitedly, “Look, that Teddy Bear balloon is so cute!” When I came back the next day, the lady at the counter said, “We are out of the Teddy Bear balloon. The one on display is the only one left. It’s been there for two weeks. If you can untangle it, you can have it.” Was it fate?

Should I say it with a Hallmark Valentine card? Something that will both make her laugh and feel cupid’s arrow strike at the same time. Something with a boom and a wow.

Should I say it with a “True love’s kiss?” Last night we watched “Enchanted” and all it took was one kiss for them to live happily ever after.

Should I keep it simple and just say it from the heart the best I know how? It may not glitter like the most expensive of diamonds but I do know it’s something we can celebrate everyday with our 8-year old son all year round.

To my wife, thank you for being the most amazing wife and the most loving, generous mom to our son. I am truly blessed because of you. Thank you for your unconditional love and patience. Thank you for making me believe that I can be a prince surrounded with the most priceless of treasures, my family. And yes, thank you for making me the happiest prince in all the land.

Luv, Happy Valentine’s Day!

To my blogging community, wishing you and your treasured love ones a Valentine’s Day full of love and happiness. A Valentine’s Day to celebrate always and forever.

P.S. This is my “Selfie” version of WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge. Having a “Selfie Phobia,” it was the hardest, nerve wrecking challenge to date but for love, we go out of our comfort zone, face our fears and give our best. Whew! Glad the selfie shots are over. Now, I can relax and take a bite of those chocolates, with my wife’s permission of course.
