Valentine’s Day isn’t just for lovers– it’s a chance to show your care and appreciation for all the special people in your life! My heart is with my family, but I also care deeply for the parents, teachers and caregivers in our “village,” who provide support in so many different ways and enrich our lives.
In addition to events happening around Metro Vancouver before and on Valentine’s Day, we’ve rounded up some ways to show your love to those around you.
