I have the best husband. I love the little traditions we have:

• He always gives me a kiss when he meets me after work.
• He always walks on the street side of the sidewalk in order to protect me.
• He always opens and shuts my car door for me.
• He always says yes when I ask him to rub my back or play with my hair.
• He always tells me he loves me as he turns off the light before we go to bed.

But sometimes, I am surprised when he shakes it up. Like this morning, when I was waking him up.

Me: “Good morning, honey. Time to wake up.”

Him: “Thank you.”

Me: Surprised because he usually says good morning back to me. “Thank you?”

Him: “Thank you for saying ‘yes’ a year ago.”

Before Rafa even opened his eyes, he remembered that one year ago today, he proposed to me. I am pretty amazed that was his first thought of the day, but I am not surprised. I love you!
