In honor of Valentine's Day, we'll be publishing love notes tri-boro readers send us to ariana.cohn-sheehan@patch.com all this week. Send us your love note, including the town you live in, your name and the name of your valentine. Also, feel free to include a photo of you and your valentine. To get the fun started, I've included a valentine of my own to my husband that you can use as an example.

Dear Jon,

I am so happy you agreed to be my valentine. This Valentine's Day, to show you how special you are, I will walk the dog at night for the next three days, taking the burden off of you. After that, you're on your own.

You are handsome and charming and I love you very much.

Love,

Ariana Sheehan
