Blog: Forget Valentine's? Pamper Your Valentine Any Day of the Year

Did you miss the Valentine's Day memo? If so do not worry you can still make it an amazing day for the ones you love with no or minimal cost! 

If you ask a woman what she really wants for Valentine's or any day, if she dug down, I bet she would say: Time away from the kids, the house cleaned, car detailed, a massage, foot rub, and dinner made.  All these easy ideas are FREE, they just take a little of your thought and time! 

Here is a sample how-to: (This can also be for men too!) 

*Make a day of it for her or spread it out over the week: You can make a coupon book with all these items in there and promise that when she hands you a coupon you will hop to (make your own or enjoy this printable http://www.homemade-gifts-made-easy.com/free-printable-love-coupons.html)  

*Give her a couple unexpected hours away from the house/kids.  Tell her to make sure she does something for her, not grocery shopping! Have her grab a coffee or favorite lunch or get her toes done.

*While the kids take a nap, detail the car she usually drives.  She will remember your thoughtful gift for weeks as she drives her shiny clean car.

*When she gets back from time away (or after kids go to bed) have some candles lit, massage oil out, hand her a cocktail and tell her to relax! Give her a foot massage or even better a full body massage watch a simply video to learn how she will really be impressed you took the time to do this!

*Have the lil' ones pitch in to help clean house! They can pick up toys, pretend to sweep and vacuum and unload dishes.  Get them involved to make it fun while mom (or dad) is out taking a breather.

*EVERY gal wants to get something while they are at work.  For some reason in our human-ness we love for others to see that we are loved!  Hand deliver her flowers you pick, or these chocolate covered strawberries I made last night — you can get the kids involved here too.  They won’t be perfect but in her eyes they will be better than that! 

Remember to love the ones that mean the most to you on this day and all the days in the year! Don't take your love for granted :) ~ Good luck and share some unexpected love ... ~ Nicole
