A Gift

My husband and my dad went to Home Depot tonight.  They were on a hunt for all things home-improvementy. 

Ok, maybe not all things, but they did get some stuff we needed for this house.  And when they came back, Mike said,"I have a surprise for you." 

I said,"For me?"

He walked back out and came in a couple of times, and I continued cleaning the shelf on which I was working.  I heard my mom say,"Wow, just what every woman wants..."  I thought she was talking about something he had just brought in, as a joke (a new garbage can for recyclables).

I wasn't really paying attention, and a few seconds later I turned around, and there before me was this...

And, yes, this is exactly what I wanted.

I cried.  Indeed, I did.

His love for me is great.

We've been following your move! Seems like you're in the new house --
no problem at all? Love Michaela's room in progress and the house looks great. It's great that Ken & Vickie were able to be there to provide so much help. We're enjoying Christina's blog, and Michael's. Hope to hear more news soon. Love to all , Mom & Bob
