In this special Valentine’s issue, we asked our dear friend Vlada (@ohhomemoments) to share her heartfelt story on family love. She invites us into her world, offering a glimpse into the warmth, connection, and cherished moments that make her family so special. Join us as we celebrate love in its purest form—the love that begins at home.

Valentine’s Day is often associated with romantic love, but family love is just as important. What does family love mean to you?

Before starting a family, Valentine's Day was always associated with romantic love and dates, but now this special day has moved to a "different level", there is no less love in it, it has become more conscious and more valuable. For me, family love is primarily caring for each other, respect and support, small but no less important things that you do for your loved ones every day.

Do you have any special traditions for Valentine’s Day as a family?

Valentine's Day is another day to remind yourself of your love and of course you want to add a little romance to it. Therefore, flowers, hugs and something tasty for breakfast are a must-have for the start of the day. Perhaps every family has its own recipe for maintaining strong family bonds, but I don't have one. I was just lucky to meet a person with whom I want to spend my whole life side by side, whom I am incredibly proud of, admire and with whom I can be myself, feel happy and loved.

Home is where love grows—how do you create a warm and loving atmosphere at home?

For me, home is a place of strength and a place that I want to fill with love. To create a warm atmosphere of love, there are enough things that give warm memories, that visually and tactilely evoke pleasant emotions and a sense of security and comfort.

What’s one message you’d like to share about the importance of family love this Valentine’s Day?

Warmth, comfort and the smell of fragrant pastries.
