I awoke on my 28th birthday to a note telling me to be ready in twenty minutes for the day!
Who does that?!
My sweet husband. That's who.
I didn't take it well. I cried.
And they weren't happy tears. Apparently I don't enjoy surprises (for the record).
I was whisked away to a hair appointment (where I became a brunette again...which was my choice). And then a full day at the spa (where I cried again).
After my day of relaxation, I came home to a brand new full bedroom set (one that we had picked out two years ago).
My husband is amazing. That's all I have to say. Even after I got upset about being away from home on my birthday (and crying), he still loved and spoiled me.
(There will be more thoughts on me being a brat about the spa later....God had a few things to teach me about letting go of control.)
All I can say is that I was and am completely undeserving of the day I was blessed with (much like we are undeserving of God's grace). But oh, how grateful I am!
Sometimes we just have to trust in the grand plan that someone else has made for us.
I can't wait for you to hear the whole story.
We're off to shop at Target for some families who need to be spoiled, and I can't spare another minute.
