I get you about Valentine's Day. People snark that if you go the non-romantic route, you're just rationalizing not having a romantic partner. Piffle! Love is love, and while romance sells the flowers and chocolates and restaurant reservations, there's plenty of people who can enjoy the day. I consider it a day when people can reflect on who they love, and say it! Most people don't say it enough.
Your mother and mine would have gotten along splendidly! My mom did not have a happy childhood and made sure my sister and I did, and that meant celebrating every holiday with decorations and special things to do. :)
I remember Valentine's Day at school, too. Students were urged to give Valentines to everyone. As for taking time away from education, you are learning how to be compassionate and inclusive, IMO.

Mom smiles when I put up decorations, I know! I'm glad to hear our mom wasn't the only one like that.
(hugs)
