So my wonderful wonderful AMAZING DF knew that yesterday and today would be hard for me bc thanks to my stupid boss making me work today and having no childcare our DD spent today with our father.
Last year DF was away for mothers day and so it was just LO and I. Didnt really make a big deal of it, I spent the day with LO and we enjoyed ourselves. It was my first mothers day so I was still happy.
We have been so stressed financially that I really didnt expect ANYTHING for Mothers day. I didnt think I could afford it.
Well right before I got off work last night he went to the store and bought me a dozen yellow roses and a mothers day card. He knows I dont really like roses but they didnt have lilies and he knows if I do get roses I like the yellow ones. Him buying the correct color is amazingly special to me because he is totally colorblind due to an accident when he was a child. So anytime he buys me flowers he has to ask somoene to help him find the color he needs.
But that wasnt even the part that made me cry. Not only did he help my 2 year old DD write her own name, he left me the most wonderful message about how he appreciates me and all I do for him and that he is so happy that I am his forever.
I, of course, bawled my eyes out. DF has never really been good at surprising me, but he tried making me my favorite food for lunch (he failed bc I gave him the wrong recipe so it was my fault lol) and then I came home to that. Hes so wonderful.
