Last night as we were putting Caleb to bed my husband asked what I needed. I think he could tell I was tired out. I told him I just needed a bath. Usually I take my shower while Daddy helps Caleb with his. But he was doing some reading last night that he needed to do for his class so I helped Caleb with his bath instead of taking mine.
I went in to our bathroom and found he'd run a bath for me, complete with my folded towels and candles. It was really sweet. I stuck my foot in and the water was scalding hot! The whole thing struck me as funny. I went to the computer and asked if he had some ice cubes to cool down the water. He went and tested it himself and agreed it was a bit hot! He knows I love a hot bath though. I guess I have to be in the water as it feels up and get used to it rather than step into it.
I totally appreciated his thoughtfulness. It was such a cute thing for him to do for me! When I said I just need a bath I was thinking in my head of a cool shower because I had felt hot and sweaty all evening with the humidity and warmer temperatures we had. I guess I should use the right words to convey what I really mean.
It was very sweet of him to prepare the bath for me as a way to relax before bed. I told him I'd have to write about this on my blog!

It's moments like that I am sure make you so proud! He obviously has observed thoughtful acts done in your household for him to understand and return the acts of kindness!
He's a keeper!
You obviously must treat him with the same kind of respect. Way to go.
a great post. Thanks for wonderful hubbies that the Lord has blessed us with.
