Seven Years

So, today's me and David's seventh anniversary. SEVEN. (I'm totally picturing that episode of Friends where Monica holds up seven fingers....although that has NOTHING to do with our anniversary, its just what popped into my head. And if you don't know what episode that is, we can't be friends. Just kidding!)

Anyway, David rocks. I think he has this whole husband thing down. He doesn't do a lot of super sweet, bring me flowers, write me love notes kind of things, and then BAM! every once in awhile he throws it at me and I'm knocked off my feet!

Like today, for instance, he totally let me sleep in!! He knows just how to get on my good side! ;) But it totally gets better! I know! When I got home from work, there on the table is a BIG bag (not some little dinky fun size bag), a BIG bag, of my favorite candy! (Peanut Butter M&M's if you can't live without that little tidbit) And on top of the bag of candy is a card. I open the card and start reading. Its so gushy I kind of skip ahead, and then something catches my eye and I go back and read it all the way through, it is so sweet I totally start to cry! And at the end he writes something along the lines of "The last seven years have been the best of my life. I look forward to the next seventy years and beyond..." The rest is personal, yo.

Anyway, I just have to give a shout out to my husband that even after seven years he still knows what I like and tries to make things special for me! He's awesome.

How can I top extra sleep and candy?!

8 awesomeness!...and attractiveness!:

Tell Dave I'm totally impressed! I'm glad I know the episode you are talking about. I'd hate for you to disown me! Isn't sleep a beautiful thing. For all the crazy things our hubbies do, they really are fantastic!
