When you have been married for over twenty years, your definition of romance evolves over time and based on your experiences as a couple. This can definitely be said of how I perceive romance or romantic gestures from my husband over the years. As a younger couple, my expectations for romance were pretty traditional such as receiving flowers and cards on Valentine's Day or getting cute messages on my pager.

Throughout July and August, the Hallmark Channel will be releasing the original movies, Summer Villa, For Love and Honor, My Summer Prince, Managing Manhattan as well as the Kitten Summer Games, and the new original TV series, Chesapeake Shores.
