Monday, Wayne and I had a defacto Valentine’s. We will be busy visiting and I was worried about the romance getting lost in life’s business. I think God decided to make it happen. Monday is our longest day (since I work all day) and I was tired. Wayne had stayed home. He had worked at cupcake royale. He had hinted that he got me a sweet. I didn’t realize he had gotten me a deathcake, a sumptuous theo chocolate, espresso ganache cake. I had tried and failed to get one on Friday and figured it would be lost in the business of prepping for travels. We also had gotten 300 in the mail from netflix. I had requested it a month ago, but various other movies took priority. I had not expected it to come.
The kids went to bed as we snuck into the kitchen to split our chocolate. Then downstairs to enjoy blood and abdomens of steel. The best Valentines!
