love note to myself.

By

It is that time of year, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner.  Love notes, hearts, words, glue, glitter aplenty.  As a mom of three, it is a fun time.  Picking the perfect valentines, cutting out paper hearts, helping my kindergartner spell all the names of his very first school friends as he carefully writes them on his cards.  A time of spreading love to special friends, family, and teachers, but when was the last time you wrote a love note to yourself?  Don’t you deserve some love from you?  The great thing is you can write it anywhere you like, no glitter required.  Perhaps on your bathroom mirror (my little tip: dry erase markers work great on mirrors), on your own skin, or in your journal.  Maybe send yourself a memo, or cut yourself a paper heart of your very own, or simply scribble something down on a scrap of paper or a post it note.  Who knows, you may want to save your love note somewhere special and pull it out from time to time.

So in the spirit of love, write something nice to you today, take a photo of whatever it may be, then please share it here with us.   

“You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”-Buddha

  33. simple & powerful! thank you for this! It’s just Maggie & me – no mom, no dad, no siblings, kids or sig other – just Maggie! And while she lets me know I’m loved, sometimes I don’t feel so important or loved. I’m doing a note to me today, because I love me, God loves me & that is enough!! I might have to blog this!

    Love ya!

  40. The interesting information, the tonic on a note! without her, there would be no me. so, it kind of fits.

  41. Rather actually! As a mom of three, it is a fun time. Picking the perfect valentines, cutting out paper hearts, helping my kindergartner spell all the names of his very first school friends as he carefully writes them on his cards. A time of spreading love to special friends, family, and teachers, but when was the last time you wrote a love note to yourself?

  42. Perhaps on your bathroom mirror (my little tip: dry erase markers work great on mirrors), on your own skin, or in your journal. Maybe send yourself a memo, or cut yourself a paper heart of your very own, or simply scribble something down on a scrap of paper or a post it note. Who knows, you may want to save your love note somewhere special and pull it out from time to time.
