                                              For me from me  ****as a little girl attending a one room school , we made Valentine boxes or bags and hung them all around the room, decorated with our name. I could not wait to see who validated that they liked me , never realising then that some kids could not afford shoes let alone a Valentine. I was super shy and this became a cherished item for me A Valentine with someone's actual signature name on it . I often gave Valentines with hankies in them to my aunts and grandmother and recived some beauties as well, even with crocheted borders.. My grandfather always gave me a  silver dollar.  candy was Russell Stovers....memories.sandy
