Special Days...

We can send cards for all kind of days and special occasions - whether they are store bought or  handmade...and we do (at least I do)...Mother's Day, Father's Day, Birthdays, Engagements, Weddings, Graduations...and many more. And I know some people who think that some of these are made up days or "hallmark" holidays. I love any excuse to send mail to someone and share my like/love/friendship with them.

That first kiss lead to this...yep, had a feeling.
But why not come up with your own special days - they often can be the most important and memorable. Every year I wish my husband a Happy First Kiss Day (not sure why I kept it in my mind but I remember it) - April 9th. I just realized as I am writing this blog post that this past one was actually our 10th First Kiss Anniversary. And really, I'm pretty sure that I kept track of the day because I had an inkling after that first kiss, that maybe, just maybe he might be a keeper (and yay, he was). I absolutely remember the day he proposed December 17th - a Friday - the last day of classes before Christmas Break (a happy day for two teachers...made even happier). He gets a lot of mail from us at work (Happy first week of classes, Happy last day of classes, We miss you/Love you...).

One of my sister-in-laws is a twin and in her family they celebrate Twin Day - the day their Mom found out she was having twins! Think about the fun you could have with this! The day someone you know gave up Diet Coke (okay that was me 106 days ago - going strong!) or the day someone you know made THE perfect cupcake/apple pie/_________ fill in your blank (a day that will go down in history perhaps or infamy). Or if you don't have a special day just yet send out a Happy Talk like a Pirate Day note (September 19th - marrrrrk it down on your calendarrrrr matey) or need something closer...Lollipop Day is July 20th...even closer...Go Barefoot Day on June 1st! See how fun this is.

Happy Thursday at least!

365/1000 - one today - a little celebration card just because :)
