Happy Valentine's Day.......

According to legend, Valentine's Day originated in the Medieval Era when the Catholic Saint Valentine, a priest at the time, refused the Roman Emperor's law ordering young men to remain single. The priest Valentine secretly performed marriages, but was found out and thrown into prison. The night before he was executed, he wrote the very first "valentine," giving it to a young woman believed to be his love. The note read, "From your Valentine," and thus began the celebration of love. So............I hope all of you sent your love a Valentine to carry on the tradition and to let those that you love know how much you appreciate them.
