This month’s super sponsor:
those are so cute! i like that it takes the small things in life, because it really can have a big impact on someone.
Yes to all of these! It's the little things! They add up and go a long way!
So cute! The little things in life really do add up when it comes to showing love.
All sweet ideas!!
Love the little "I love yous" in your post! Hubby and I boycott commercial Valentine's Day, so last year, we got a movie from my work library and I made heart-shaped pizza for dinner for everyone. Lovely at no extra cost 🙂
Yes, I've been brushing a lot of snow off cars and heating them up these days. The 'REMOTE' for an evening idea- its already tortuous enough! Thanks for sharing!
These are great ideas! A little known fact is that everyone loves flowers – even guys!

It's hard for us because I'm in the states and he's stationed in South Korea. Things like phone calls happen once or twice a month for us. We are very attentive to details – I left post-it notes with little loving (and some sarcastic/silly) messages on them hidden throughout his apartment before I left after visiting last month. He snuck one of his own into my suitcase. We leave each other loving messages on each other's Facebook wall. We surprise each other with small gifts like Kindle books.
Being in a long-distance relationship really makes all those little gestures of love and affection mean so much more when they happen.
You're right, flowers to have to be expensive at all–our grocery store has little $5 bouquets! And I love it when my husband brushes the snow off of my car for me! Showing love often just means taking an extra minute to think of something you can do to bless the other person!
I love these ideas. They are all quick cheap and yet very meaningful. The small things really do add up. I'm glad you shared these little gestures.
Visiting from Weekend Block Party … Thanks for the neat ideas!! My husband leaves lots of notes and I LOVE them!
