Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine's Day, my sweets! What are you doing tonight? On this day four years ago, I was feeling sad and lonely....and had no idea that I was only two weeks from meeting Alex. It goes to show that you never know what's right around the corner!

happy valentines day to you as well! sadly sick this morning...so probably spending the day sipping tea, reading, and writing. :)
Much love to you, Alex and Toby, Joanna! Thanks for being such a great source of all things inspiring... your blog rocks!
see that's the story i like hearing the most...that women who are talented and well-rounded, intelligent and beautiful still had moments like that.
glad you found your penguin. :)
Happy Valentines Day! I'm having dinner at home with my husband!
How sweet! I actually met my husband four years ago tonight. There was a terrible ice storm in Pennsylvania, and we met at a local bar when I went to meet some friends he worked with who all had gotten an early dismissal. We started as friends, but began dating a few months later. We got married last month!
I love that. :) Life happens when you least expect it! Happy love day!
happy valentines day!

you're so right!
Aww, I bought this card for my husband. I'm giving it to him tonight!
Happy Valentine's!

You're right, you never know. I met my husband at a weekend work event that I was SO reluctant to attend. Best day of my life that ultimately lead to more best days with the birth of our two kids:)
this is such a sweet post. happy almost 4 year anniversary of meeting your husband/toby's father. :)
you are so right! happy love day!
Happy V-Day to you, too! No plans tonight, we celebrated yesterday to avoid crowds :-)
Just over four years ago, I started dating my husband. In the time since, we've bought our dream house, got married, and had two kids! Crazy what can happen in less than half a decade.
Your words offer encouragement...thanks Jo!
Happy Valentine's day to you, too!
i love this. so much hope for me! ; )

Yay ~ I love hearing this. I hope something just as great is in the future for me! I'm going to see the movie "sex friends" tonight (french translation of "no strings attached! how weird is that?) with my girlfriends!!!
so sweet and inspirational! I love that their heads are cut off.
aww... happy valentines!

Happy Valentines! I love how life is like that... you never know when, but love is just around the corner : )
I'll be spending my evening at school... in french class, which is kind of love-ly. :]
What a sweet post!
oh adorableness (the card!) there is so much love out there in the world - today is a day to share that with everyone.
Happy Vday to all, those in love and those waiting, ever so patiently, for cupid to strike.
we always go golfing and eat pizza for v-day! can't wait!
So much can happen in four short years!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Happy Valentine's Day! I hope you and your lovely family have a great one! Thanks for all the delightful posts, I look forward to them daily!

Happy Valentine's day Joanna,
I love this post. it gives me hope :)
Happy Valentine's Day! That is so fun - I am more liek you four years ago, but that is ok - I will still enjoy my favorite holiday as a single lady. GLad I have girlfriends to still go out to a fun dinner with tonight!
Much love,
B
aw, i just bought this card for my husband two days ago. :) i just added some glasses with a sharpee. :) happy valentines day to you!
This is adorable!!!! I hope you have a wonderful valentines day! :)
Oh man, that sweet story about you and alex brought tears to my eyes. It's so true, you really never know what the future holds. Thanks so much for the reminder :)
Cute card. Happy Valentines Day!
Three years ago today I was dumped via text message. Two months later I met my true Valentine, he is currently cooking me dinner and we're about to buy our first home together.
The best really is yet to be.
Happy Valentine's Day x
We've never really celebrated Valentine's... it'll probably be same old, same old... me cooking dinner, us snuggling on the couch and him listening to me chatter away :)
Happy Valentine's day! If you'd only known four years ago that you'd have two valentine boys to celebrate today, huh?
We're celebrating our eighth valentine's day together by cooking dinner in our underwear. Ahh, good ol' internet TMI.
*eyebrow waggle
Happy Valentines day! My boyfriend took me to London this weekend to a french restaurant and theatre :) I cant see him tonight (he lives too far away)but he did send me flowers at work..I couldnt stop smiling xx
Had such brilliant plans to eat waffles and drink beer with my boyfriend his friends in BK for valentines day but I managed to get food poisoning!! So sweet that he cancelled our plansnto come take care of me, but this look is a lot less attractive than the cute dress I had picked out. He really is the best Valentine a girl could dream of :)
It's amazing that even though you are happily married with a beautiful family you remember what it's like for us single gals! Best thing to read on V-day ever! I am not a huge blog reader but I love your blog! :)
I'm single and for the first time don't feel sad and lonely today! It also helps that I'm distracted by a million things right now (it's my twin sisters birthday and my little brothers too! also im up to my ears in grad school apps)
awwww. gives me hope!
Love your comment about not knowing what is right around the corner...life is amazing that way! I spent a romantic weekend in Idyllwild, CA...snuggling with my boyfriend in a cozy mountain cabin...falling more in love every minute.
Hope you and your family have a wonderful Valentines Day together!
This is my 4th V-day with my boyfriend. He's not a big fan of the holiday so we always spend it at our apt. I'm decorating our place, ordering chinese food, and then we'll watch a funny movie.
Those are such comforting words, Jo! I hope you have a fabulous day.
A sweet post and a lovely reminder that life always promises to be surprising. I'm so happy for you!
Thanks, Joanna! I just went through a terrible breakup, and it's so sweet to be reminded that sometimes the view is bleak only because we can't see the future. I hope your day is warm and magical!
As a single gal, this made me so so happy. I'm glad you found true love! Instead of being sad and lonely on Vday, I'm having a bunch of single gals over to celebrate. But I still hope that Mr. Right will come along soon!
Very cute card.
You really don't know how quickly your life can change. It is good practice to keep your eyes open. Happy V day!
i love this! and how funny, i had the same experience with my lovebug: found him a week after the worst valentines day of my life! hurray for not knowing what the future holds! happy valentines day to you, alex, and toby!
That's a wonderful sentiment to offer on Valentine's Day. I also have a similar experience like yours. February is a big month in our household. Met my husband 5 yrs ago on a blind date at the beginning of the month, got engaged one yr later on V Day, celebrating our son's 2 yr birthday this week and waiting for baby #2 to come soon after!
Bike ride in the early spring sun, homemade dinner, and our first attempt at chocolate fondue :)
Happy Valentines Day!
Beautiful thought! Fingers crossed : )
Have a fab valentines!
Four years ago, I had a date with my then-boyfriend. He served me handmade pasta and vegetables and wine.
Three years ago, my then-boyfriend and I went out to dinner.
Two years ago, my then-boyfriend and I went to New Zealand and had a lovely meal with two dear friends on the ocean front.
Last year, my then-boyfriend and I went to Boston and had pancakes with a friend in her apartment.
And this year, my now-husband and I will be having a quiet dinner at a fantastic little Korean place in our neighborhood before drifting home.
Happy Valentine's Day. :)
Mari.
You've come a long way, baby!! Happy Valentine's Day!!
PS: more comments from Alex, please. That "run it up the flagpole had me cracking up!
thank you! that actually made me feel a little better :)
that is so cute.

On this day four years ago, you got five comments and today's has 67 already! It's not just the love in your heart that has grown...it's also others' love for your work. Happy Valentine's Day!
It's crazy what's in store when you least expect it! Happy Valentine's Day! xoxo

I met my dear boyfriend two weeks from Valentines Day last year!
Little did I know...
Of all the lovely posts and pictures you've shared, this is my favorite. How sweet and true--you never know what's around the corner! Thanks for being so generous with your sense of style and kindness.
Love this. It's so true. 4 years ago, my hubby & I were "just friends." ;)
Happy Valentine's Day!
can you share how you met?
This is a time full of changes for me -- decisions that could really affect my future! And reading about the twists and turns of your life makes me feel a little better knowing everyone has those moments when it all feels about to shatter or about to take shape. Thanks.
You made me cry... Once again.
happy valentine's day Joanna.....hope u had a blast with toby and alex.
i <3 this post! Thanks for such sweet, encouraging words!
i love this post! thanku so much. Happy valentine's day.
this is the identical one that i bought for the one who has my affections...couldn't resist, too cute.
what a cuteeeee print!
you never DO know what is right around the corner! (although i feel like i've been saying that for *years*). it's easy to think that others have it all together and have always been paired and happy, so it's good to hear that i'm not the only one who sometimes feels sad and lonely!! though i will admit, i have always loved valentine's day :)
What a great message ... "you just never know what is right around the corner!"
Thanks for sharing!
That's the beauty of love: not knowing it's around the corner. My man and I were best buddies for a year because he realised we were in love! Hope you had a good V-day my dear. Bisous
HAPPY VALENTINE
