Our Wonderful Years...

Over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. Some of them stick with you through thick and thin. Some weave their way through your life and disappear forever. But once in a while someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart.

Brown hair, brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that happened to me that mattered, in some way, had to do with her. After all, she was my girl. And I knew that she understood that in some small way my achievements were her achievements.

Surprise!

Yesterday I spent some time out of the house watching my little nephew. I didn't get home until around 3, which is when Steven gets off work. I had some how managed to get myself locked out of the house down in the garage (I just couldn't figure out how to work my key...) and so when I finally walked in the front door I was all kinds of flustered. Steven was standing at the door when I walked in.

I explained the garage and we talked about my key and then I noticed the mail on the counter. There was a big package.

Me: "Oh what did you order??"

Steven: " Open it."

Me: "No, seriously, what did you order..." (I was thinking it was one of two or three things we'd talked about ordering online...)

Steven: "Just open it!"

Once I did I saw the Kate Spade tissue paper inside I started squealing!! My Husband bought me a "Just because I love you" gift:
I picked this wallet out before Christmas time and was going to buy it as my 'present to myself' but ended up buying stuff for the house instead. So a few weeks ago when I saw it on sale I sent him an email with the link, but I didn't hear anything and I forgot about it.

Until I opened it yesterday. I love my red accessories! And it has polka dots on it which I love too. But mostly, I'm pretty excited that my Husband bought me something "just because"... I couldn't stop smiling all day after that.

THANK YOU SWEETIE!
