What's better than breakfast in bed?
I'll tell you. When your husband lets you sleep in, even though he's wide awake at 7:15am on a Saturday. Instead of waking you up, he goes for a long walk and on his way home stops by the boulangerie for a fresh baguette and then picks you what has to be the very first flower of spring.
While this in itself is incredibly thoughtful and romantic, there's more.
I mentioned earlier this week in one of my frequent discourses about food and how much I like eating that my absolute favorite breakfast is fresh baguette with butter and raspberry jam. Then I moved on to another subject (probably food-related).
Yesterday as we were grocery shopping Jonathan put a jar of raspberry jam in the cart. I didn't think anything of it...until this morning when I stumbled crazy-haired into the living room and saw the baguette, butter and jam.
So this was premeditated thoughtfulness and romance. My favorite kind.

Wow, Kari! You are so blessed to have such a romantic husband who pays attention to the little things!
And I am so blessed to have 3 "daughters" who always show honor and respect to their husbands by their actions and their words. Thank you all (Britt, Dan, Trey, Kari, Jesse, Julie) for the example you are in a world that devours others through selfish behaviors.
