A special Valentine ~

See this note?


This note was left on the windshield of my car in 1990.  When my husband and I were dating, I worked at a restaurant and he stopped by and left this under the windshield wiper while I was working.  
It was a nice surprise when I got off work!

I decided to surprise him with it for a Valentine's gift, but first it needed a 'tea bath'. 
Even though it's 21 years old, I wanted it to look a bit more aged.


 It's a little hard to tell in this photo, but it looks like it's 50 years old now :)

This is a frame I had on hand.



Now, let's see if he remembers it?  

Happy February!

  3. How SWEET...I bet he remembers! Mr.CC kept the directions to my apartment from our first date in his wallet for 27 years...it was taken from him in July when he was held up at gunpoint...it really made the both of us very sad:(

    Blessings,
    Linda
