Weekly Theme Photograph – Red Hot

Posted on

Okay, so Valentine’s Day was yesterday and this week’s theme was “Red Hot”.  So, I staged a mock up of what people think Valentine’s Day is about.  Sexy underwear dropped at the side of the bed.  That’s the reality for some.  But not most.  I have been known to say I think Valentine’s Day is stupid.  I hate the subconscious competitive judging that goes on as to whether someone’s husband sent flowers or not and how that reflects on what kind of husband he is.  I also hate the fact that there is one day designated to appreciating your significant other.  Buying expensive gifts or going out to a fancy dinner is not romance in my mind.

To me, romance is the glance that my husband and I give each other when the kids do something cute or funny.  It’s my husband making lunches for the kids so I don’t have to.  It’s when we send random texts telling the other that I’m thinking about you.  We’ve been married almost 12 years and have 2 little kids, and both work.  There is a lot going on around here.  I don’t WANT romance to be the same as it was when we first met.  I like the fact that it’s changed as we’ve grown.

And with that I present….my underwear….which I had to break out of the archives from among the sports bras and boxer briefs  : )
