Okay. I'm not supposed to tell anyone how sweet and adorable my husband is (for the sake of his manly ego) but I LOVE HIM! Our anniversary day was shaping up to be nothing short of ordinary, which was a huge disappointment to me since I had it in my head that it should be some sort of monumental celebration, but he surprised me. I got over thinking I needed some huge spectacular event and was looking forward to spending the evening together - just he and I. Something easy, something chill - dinner and movie. We had a great time. Owen was spending the night with Jonathen Moore being crazy, and so we had no curfew... I didn't get dressed up (we wore flip-flops) and made it a relaxing night. It felt like it had been forever since we had a date! When we got home, he pulled out a gift (not that kind...you dirty minded people) and I was totally surprised! Now between us, I can never tell what kind of a gift Tom will get. Since money is usually tight, it's likely to be something practical that I have been meaning to get and just haven't, like pink spatulas or an egg timer. But I have to say that over this year he has been pretty good - for Mother's Day he surprised me with two sets of nesting end tables that I had fallen in love with - and this is what he got for our anniversary!! It's the coolest little camcorder! I've been looking at them since before Christmas and with everything that's out there, I just thought the innovation of it's simplicity was SO cool! It was the last thing I expected. What a great guy to be so sneaky and for giving me little moments of surprise. I know gifts are not to be tokens of our affections for one another and it is not the actual gift itself that is so precious. I find great happiness in just the thought of his wanting to give something that seems out of reach or impossible at the time. Thinking of something that I would never expect and then giving me the world with all of his heart. He's so cute.
