As we remember week three was not a roaring success.
On Saturday Craig picked his card and looked at me and said:
C: I think they must have thought up a list of ideas for the guys and dumbed them down – if I only did what the card said you would be mad.
Me: No I won’t…(thinking, yup I will)
So I had pretty low expectations about this week. I probably asked him everyday if he wanted to give me my surprise and it was always a no…umph. Really I just wanted to know what it was to see if he was right. I wasn’t expecting anything that might actually lead to some romance.
Friday morning we had a pretty intense talk about you guessed it… it wasn’t a fight but there was definitely tension. While we were making supper I tried to break the ice and I asked him again if he wanted to give me my surprise and he said no…umph…my phone rings.
I got great news on the call and poured myself a glass of wine and cranked up hit list – it was time to celebrate! We had a nice dinner and as the kids played and danced we flopped onto the couch for a cuddle moment and he said “do you want your surprise now?” – YES!!
And this was it…
Everytime I look at you
I see a person who is
Beautiful
Smart
Sexy
And loves me more than I love myself
You show me your love in many ways
And in my guises
Wife
Mother
Friend
Humanitarian
You give so much to everyone
You are special to me in every way
You help build me up when I am down
You laugh with me
You cry with me
You love with me
You are everything I would want in a wife
You are the world to me
I love you more everyday
I hope you know how
Special
Loved
Beautiful
You are…
I love you!
WOW!! I wasn’t expecting that…and I could barely believe that he wrote it, I asked him where he found it on the internet
so that made it even more special that he wrote something like that for me. It was a really special moment and I have thought about it over and over this past week.
A bit later he let me see his card and his task for the week was to complete the Roses are Red, Violets are Blue… poem…he was right…I don’t think that would have gone over quite as well. And I’ll close by saying that I bet he was happy to have written something from the heart…it ended in a hot hot night!!!
