I know everyone sees Valentine’s Day as a time to spend with your significant other doing typically romantic things – going out to dinner, receiving and giving flowers, partaking of chocolates – but for me it is, and always will be, about my wonderful groups of friends that I love and who love me.  Jason and I have plenty of time to be romantic with each other (heck every day should be Valentine’s Day around here!) but how many days in the year do you stop and say “I love you” to your great and wonderful friends?  The ones who add so much sparkle and joy and laughter and strength to your life?  So (and yes, I KNOW I’m a day late with this one, but hey, my friends totally understand, don’t you guys???) I would like to say I love you guys – you have offered so much fun and advice and comfort in the last year I could not have done it without you!  Thank you, so much, from the bottom of my heart.  Of course, I wouldn’t want to break with tradition too much so, um, where’re the chocolates?
