I’ve been lucky to be married to a wonderfully romantic man. Every morning, without fail, he brings me coffee in bed to start my day. On our 16th anniversary, he was away on a business trip halfway around the world, so obviously, I had not planned on any coffee being delivered to me that day. I should have known better than to underestimate this man!
He had a friend deliver coffee and a croissant, placing them on the front porch, so when I went to get the paper, I would see them sitting there. This was such a loving gesture. I knew that even though he was probably asleep at the time (due to the huge time difference), he was still thinking of me. That cup of coffee with pastry was the best gift I have ever received.
