My husband

I have the best husband. Recently (okay for our entire marriage) I have complained about the fact that we do not eat at the dining table enough. We are in the terrible habit of sitting in front of the tv in our respective places (me on the couch, Eric in the recliner) to eat every meal. Well, last night when I got home from Sylvan, Eric had supper ready (which is pretty standard), but to my surprise he had the table set for us to sit down and eat rather than plopping down in front of the boob tube. In addition, he had fixed a fruit salad, our drinks were fixed and waiting (and not in plastic or styrofoam cups), and he had a beautiful long-stem red rose for me. So we enjoyed a nice romantic supper (okay it was just hamburger helper, but that's beside the point) at the dining table where we talked about our day and looked at each other instead of looking at the big illuminated screen in the living room. It was a very big gesture on his part, and it did not go unnoticed.
