The best part of waking up...

my incredibly sweet, remarkably thoughtful husband sets up the coffee pot for me every night and then turns it on in the morning so it's nice and hot when i'm heading out the door.

i mean seriously, how many men do this?

he learned early on in our relationship that i'm just not a morning person so i think it's his little way of helping me get the day started on a bright note. it's become such a habit that i'm embarrassed to admit that i haven't even acknowledged his efforts lately.

shame on me.

i worked from home today and last night told him not to go through the whole coffee ritual, especially because neither of us walked through the door until nearly 10p. this morning, in the sixty seconds it took for me to make my own coffee and subsequent five minutes i spent groggily waiting for it to brew i couldn't help but appreciate the man in my life.

he's so good at the little things. he's pretty amazing at the big ones too but it's the small gestures that get me every time.
