Dear Bob,

On this special day of the year, I just wanted to let you know that I love you. You mean everything to me, and I’m lucky to have you in my life. And I hope you feel the same way, too.

When you told me you were moving to San Francisco, I thought our relationship was over. I just didn’t think that I could handle a long-distance relationship. I know it’s so much easier these days to stay in touch with people, but I just couldn’t bear the thought of being apart. I was crying the whole day after I saw you off at the airport. But together, I think we can overcome anything.

Thank you for sharing special moments with me every day. I love you, Bob
Happy Valentine’s Day!

With lots of hugs and kisses,

Ellen

Jim Allen used to scold his son for playing video games. Now he joins his son in front of the TV. “These games used to come between us,” Allen said. Now the father and son are gaming partners. Today’s game consoles offer wireless controllers. Wireless controllers allow a more physical kind of play. With these controllers, players can do more than fire guns and move a character around.
