I have a best friend.
Her name is Valentine.
She’s so awesome there’s a day that celebrates her, and it’s not even her birthday.
It’s…
VALENTINE’S DAY!
I’m supposed to make cards for everyone I know.
To celebrate my best friend, Valentine.
Mom says everyone’s going to make cards.
But I want my cards to be Valentine’s favorite.
What if they aren’t her favorite?
That would be horrible.
I know… I’ll make mine heart-shaped because I love Valentine best.
I’ll glue a picture of us to each one.
I’ll write, “Please wish my best friend, Valentine, a HAPPY day!”
I’ll use gobs of glitter,
reams of ribbon,
and scads of stickers.
Aren’t my cards bea-u-ti-ful?
Valentine! Look at the cards I made for your day!
—Um, it’s not my day.
Sure it is. It’s Valentine’s Day. Mom says so. The calendar says so. It’s YOUR special day.
—Um, it’s Saint Valentine’s day.
Saint Valentine? SAINT VALENTINE?! But all my cards celebrate you! What am I supposed to do with them? Waaah!
—They are beautiful cards. My favorite! Can I have them? Please?
They’re your favorite? Truly?
—Truly. The best cards ever. From my best friend ever.
Sniff, sniff.
Happy Valentine’s Day, Valentine.
—Happy Valentine’s Day back.
I enjoyed you point of view in this story. Good luck.
I’m such a newbie to “blogs” and wordpress that I didn’t realize I had comments:) Thank you so much for taking the time to comment! <3
Cute story. Names can cause such confusion. Good Luck.
Thanks so much:) Somehow I didn’t realize I had comments. Newbie to wordpress!
Awwwww, poor kid. Good thing Valentine saves the day! Good luck in the contest!
Thanks, Jilanne! I just now saw that I have comments… world’s worst wordpress blogger;)
Well done. Good luck!
Thanks so much! I just now realized that I had comments. It was nice of you to take the time. Guess I’d better learn how to use wordpress!
Sweet story with a satisfying ending. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Thanks so much! It appears that I need to learn how to blog and accept comments. Such a newbie to the wordpress thing. Sorry for not acknowledging your sweet comment!
Awwwww. Sweet.
I wish you well with this story.
Thanks so much! I’m embarrassed to say that I didn’t know I had comments till today. WordPress blogging fail!
What a sweet best friend. Well done, Kristi!
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment. I just now saw that I had comments lol… clearly still learning how to use blogging features of wordpress.
Cute story, Kristi! I can see how a child with a friend named Valentine might experience that confusion! Glad it all worked out 🙂 Thanks so much for joining in the Valentiny fun!
Am so embarrassed… I didn’t see that there were comments until now. I am still learning how wordpress and blogging work–haha:) Thank you so much for taking the time to comment!
HaHa Definite confusion. I don’t have any friends named Valentine, but I do have a neighbor named Saint! Thanks.
Thank you so much for comment:) I’m sorry, I only now realized that people had commented. Bad wordpress user!
