Best, sweetest thing I've seen someone do for Valentine's Day



One of my co-workers, Becky, is very pregnant, as in, while she's not due for another two weeks, the baby is already over 8 lbs. She's retaining water and generally miserable. Let's face it, being 9 months pregnant does not make you feel sexy. And this is the first Valentine's she and her husband are celebrating since they got married.

So...she had a doctor's appointment. Hubby was going to meet her at the doctor's office. Unbeknownst to her, he waited in the parking lot at our workplace and watched until she left. Then he ran into her office with a beautiful bunch of roses and pink statice, and a heart-shaped box full of chocolate. The card said, "Mama, we love you" and was signed by Hubby for both him and the baby. He then ran back out so that he could meet her at the office.

Awwww....That boy was raised right. I wonder if he has a brother?
