Women can always tell if you put thought into Valentine’s Day or if you are just winging it. Careful planning will give her the message that she is special to you.Things to Remember Before Valentine’s Day Do something to remind you to plan early, such as writing a note.
Don’t wait until the last minute to prepare.
• Make dinner reservations.
• Preorder flowers.
• Get her a card before they are picked through.
• Arrange a babysitter yourself; don’t make her do it.
She needs to know that she knows that she is special to you, that she is your top priority.
Remember, you want to bring a smile to her face or a tear to her eye.
Do something so out of the ordinary that you surprise even yourself.
