I don't have any kids yet, so writing about family Valentine's Days wouldn't occur to me. However, I have two nephews, and I know that my brother and sister-in-law would love to incorporate them into their celebration.

What is so special about celebrating my love on the same day everyone else is? Despite my cynicism, I will be doing something special this year with the sheconomist. It is our last v-day as bachelor and bachelorette! <abbr><em>The Weakonomist’s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Weakonomicscom/~3/471224836/" rel="nofollow">Weaky #11: Sweet Home, Nigeria</a></abbr></em> I myself am not a huge fan of the holiday because you’re encouraged to buy jewelry, flowers, candy and all that jazz.

I especially like the suggestion for swapping out babysitting. The closest relatives we have are 4 hours away, so we can't just go drop the kids off with Grandma and Grandpa. This, however, is a great solution. I really dislike having to ask someone to keep my kids for me, just so we can go out, but this way I can immediately return the favor. I can't believe I never thought of it myself. Thanks for the great ideas. I especially like the suggestion for swapping out babysitting.
