What a Husband I Have

Words cannot describe how much I appreciate my Husband and the small gestures that make me feel like the queen of the world, but I'll try to formulate them because its too special to not brag about.

So I had a bit of a meltdown Wednesday. I've recently received an overwhelmingly amazing promotion at work, which inevitably means more responsibility and a higher demand from my peers. With the culmination of learning the scope of my new position and the unfavorable (to me) outcome of the recent election, my mind couldn't take it anymore. It only took one thing to send me into a fit of emotional rage. My amazing Husband took it upon himself to put my worries at ease. Wednesday night after we had (an amazing) dinner (cooked my yours truly), Husband says, "Lets go!". He is dragging me out the door before I could even put my shoes on. Side note: at that point I wined "can I at least have shoes" which ultimately sent Husband into an outrageous fit of laughter (for what reason I really don't know, but it entertained me).

So we get in the car and he hands me a blind fold. At this point, I was completely thrown for a loop! I was in my jammies and looking a hot mess so we couldn't be going anywhere legit. We drive for what seems like an hour even though it was only 15 minutes and when were reaching our destination, I finally figure out where we are. He gives me the ok to take off the blind fold and I see my handsome and caring husband sitting there, parked in front of the most magical place on earth, Target, holding a Starbucks card (which is inside the Target we were at) and a Target card. My immediate reaction was tears. Why did I deserve this? Such an unexpected act of kindness from a man who already does so much for me.

Needless to say, I was pampered. We got two chai lattes and leisurely strolled through my favorite place. I got two sweater dresses, some tights, and some killer stiletto bootie heels, chosen by rugged Husband who just so happens to have fantastic taste in shoes (except he hates leopard print, unexceptable!).

All this to say, Husband deserves a man of the year award. I am so thankful to have him in my life and to know he cares that much about me. I love him more than I can say and I will never let him forget it :)
