Valentines

I fondly remember giving and receiving valentines as a youngster. I wish I had saved my valentines as I would love to look through those 70's and 80's classics - Strawberry Shortcake, Care Bears, Holly Hobbie and, of course, the Disney valentines. I recall making a special pouch or box each year to put the valentines in. We would cut hearts out of pink, red and white construction paper and strategically glue them where we thought they looked best. :)

I saved both of my childrens' valentines and placed them in their memory boxes each year. They're both now too old for valentine-giving (though one would hope that they remember their mother on Valentine's Day *smile*), but I still love to stop on those aisles in the stores each February to browse through the new cards.

I love the Suzy's Zoo characters and think they have some of the cuter valentines. Pictured are a few that I've purchased just because...:o)
