I can be cute.

I realize that it's already six days into March. But whatever. I'm going to tell you how cute I was for Valentine's Day. 

I was able to be this cutesy with the help of the internet, Chaseypoo, and a $4 budget.

Ta-da!

$2 mason jar.
$1.50 red ribbon (it was on sale!)

What is this craftiness you ask? 

This fabulous and rustic-looking jar is filled with 365 reasons I love my husband. Talk about awesome. I wish I was gifted one of these. For the next calendar year, he gets to open up one reason I love him while he drinks his coffee in the morning. What a lucky dog.

Talk about a labor of love. Literally. Do you know how hard it is to think of 365 reasons you love someone? I was madly typing away for like ten minutes one afternoon and thought "Jeez I must have at least a hundred reasons typed out!" Alas, I had only 42. 

Needless to say, it took a while. But I did it. And now he gets to feel as special as he is all year round. That's right. I can be cute.

Nevermind that I forgot it was a leap year and the jar really needed 366 reasons instead of the 365 that I toiled over. Whoops.

What a great gesture! He is a very lucky person. You're someone very special for doing that too!
