It has paid off....

For Christmas I took Rick's guitar to get all fixed up and tuned up. I bought him some nice new accessories for playing and he was rearin' to go!! He has spent a ton of time learning songs and playing the guitar. Don't get me wrong, I love that he plays so much now, but it is also hard because I can't talk to him much while he's playing (he is so focused when he plays) so I get frustrated with him sometimes. Hypocritical, I know.

Well, yesterday I was feeling tired and worn out (mostly from pregnancy) and I just laid on the bed and stared off into nothingness. All of the sudden Rick pulled out the guitar and sat at the foot of our bed and got ready to play which made me a little irritated at first. However, I was so taken back when I realized what he was playing was "our song." The song we heard on the radio the day he proposed. The song we danced to at our wedding. The song we played on our anniversary. Amazed, by Lonestar. Rick had secretly been learning this song on the guitar for me. He played it so well and it was so sweet that I almost wanted to cry. Instead I just smiled as he sang it to me. That meant the world to me.

I have the best husband.
