The Creative Closet || Will You Be My Valentine?

Valentine's Day is not normally my thing. I've always found it silly that we have a national holiday about loving your significant other and showering them with gifts and romantic gestures on a single day of the year. My husband has gotten off easy since before we were married because I told him I despise the cheesiness of roses and chocolates. It's so... typical. And in fact feels the opposite of romantic considering every other woman in America is receiving the exact same gift most likely. (There is nothing wrong if you like receiving those items! I just personally... don't.)

This year I do feel a bit differently. I am seriously blaming it on the pregnancy hormones, but I'm acting as a bit of a sap. More than anything I'm just thankful for my Valentine this year. The man I married has become such a rock in my foundation. He challenges me, constantly keeps me laughing and encourages me like no one else can. Watching him change throughout the last 8 months from being just a husband to adding the role of father has been such a delight. Maddox will grow up with the most wonderful role model in his life. That's the perfect gift this Valentine's Day! It's all I could ever want.

Cue the tears.... #hormones #sheesh

PS. Pair your Valentines Day outfit with this easy 5-Step braid I shared yesterday for a fun look!
