8 Today is Valentine's Day and like most other days Maria and I will only see each other for about two hours (one hour at lunch and about an hour at 4pm before I go to class again tonight). I know that we are not the only two super busy couple in the world and that we will survive this but in the meantime is sure is tiring.
8 Maria and I have decided, as have others I am sure, to put off Valentinesindefinitly until tomorrow. Tuesday nights and Friday nights appear to be the only two nights during the week that we are both home (usually doing homework).

8 Another Valentines difficulty that I, and the other Wilhelm son-in-laws, is that the bar of expectation is set so high! Growing up Valentine's Day for me was little more than a sugar high at school, but for Maria and her sisters it was so much more.
8 Maria says her dad would send all of them flowers at school and take them on dates or prepare a nice meal at home with other gifts. Even this year her dad managed to again surprise Maria and her sisters!
8 I feel pressure to keep up but don't know that I can right now! I think I speak for all us son-in-laws when I say we will do our best to do what we can but Spence you have given us some mighty big shoes to fill!

LOL! My plan is working! Heh! Really this is part of my master plan. I blame it mostly on Grandpa Davis. I came from a family where my Mom waited on me and my Dad. I hate to admit it but I was quite spoiled. Grandpa Davis always helped out with cleaning the house and kitchen, so that is what Christine expected. Dang him! So, I decided to pay it forward. Valentine's Day is my gift to you. :-) Now the challenge for you is to figure out how to pay it forward to your son-in-law!
