February is considered the month of love because Valentine\u2019s Day is celebrated on February 14. It is \u00a0a special day that most of us have marked in the calendar, just like other holidays such as Mother\u2019s Day and Father\u2019s Day. Hallmark and the other \u201csuppliers of holiday cheer\u201d gear up for this date, each year.<\/p>\n
