9 Years

Two weeks ago, was our 9th year Wedding Anniversary. Hubby and I were able to go out and celebrate then he surprised me with mums and a balloon, printed Happy Anniversary on it.

I was surprised because it's unusual of him to bring me something for our anniversary unless I remind him. Second, his schedule at work is unpredictable. Sometimes he just dashed like a maniac preparing his stuff then come home immediately after his shift which ends late at night. Third, malls and other establishments closes at 9pm, so I can't imagine where he bought the flowers and balloons. 

I can't remember the last time he bought me flowers. Not that he doesn't want to, but every time he thinks about buying me, he would ask me first and I'd say I would rather have something that will last for more than a week. Flowers are a waste of money. And he knows we are on a tight budget in the last two months, so we're not celebrating anything this year not even our birthdays.

Yet he came home holding a pot of flowers and a balloon. I can't help but smile at him for doing something spontaneous. He might be stubborn at times, but he is sweet and thoughtful. I guess he forgot that I was going to scold him, but he did it anyway.

Thank you, my wonderful husband! I love you and Happy Anniversary!
