I love getting new things! Ever since I was just a little girl, I have loved surprises.
I had the best dad in the entire world, and he tried his best to surprise me with something about once a month. It wasn’t always something that he bought, sometimes it was simply something that he made or even a toy that I had lost and he had recently found. When my husband, Todd, and I started dating, I began praying right away that he would love to surprise me just as much as my dad did. Thankfully, he does! He surprises me as often as he possibly can. A couple weeks ago, we began having trouble with our AC unit. One day, it would work just fine and blow very cool air, but the next day, it wouldn’t work right, and the air coming out wasn’t as cool as it was supposed to be. He wanted to call an HVAC technician right away because he didn’t have me to have to stay home in a hot house all day. I knew we didn’t really have a lot of extra money at the time, so I told my husband not to worry about it. He told me he wouldn’t do anything, but of course, he did. I didn’t know it, but he went out and searched for a used AC unit that was in good condition. About two days after we talked, he came home from work with a “surprise for me.” It was a new AC unit! Well, it was new to us although it was technically used. I was so excited over getting an AC unit that I cried. I am so thankful for a wonderful husband who knows I like any kind of surprise, and loves me enough to constantly surprise me with things.
