Valentine’s day has always been one of my favorite holidays. Where I come from, people go out of the way to make not only their significant other to feel special but also their friends and family.
Love and Friendship Day is how Valentine’s Day is commonly known in the Dominican Republic, and lots of friends will be honoring the special people in their lives with all kinds of gifts and cards.
Ever since I was young, I have loved showing my friends and family my appreciation with a little token of my love, and I have continued doing so on Valentine’s day to this day (even though my husband keeps telling that is not a custom here).
My Kids on Valentine’s Day
As a mother, my first and biggest loves are my kids, and I make sure they know it. That’s why I like to include them in the Valentine’s Day celebration and get them something on that day.
Ever since they were little, I have been getting my kid’s little gifts for Valentine’s Day—maybe a matching bracelet for me and my daughter or a little locket with a message in it. This year, my little guy is big enough to be included, and I wanted something really special because this will be his first Valentine’s Day present ever.
“You’re My Favorite Place to Be” Bisque Porcelain Figurine
This figurine was just perfect for my son’s Valentine’s Day present. The adorable figurine features a boy and girl comfortably lounging on a couch with watching TV with their pets. I love relaxing with my little man and cuddle while watching TV, so this little figurine was just the perfect piece.
This figurine would also make a wonderful gift for many different occasions and for many different people—yes, it would even be a great anniversary gift!
It features beautifully sculpted bisque porcelain and expertly hand-painted details. If you are a Precious Moments fan, you do not want to miss this super cute piece!
