Best Husband Ever

So for anyone who didn't know my husband is currently attending Basic Combat Training at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri. My only form of communication with him are the letters we send each other. He gets rare calls home as well. I've also been very sick recently. It would seem my medication has simply not been keeping up with the season. This means that in the past few weeks I've epipened and been in the ER twice. Add in the general sadness of missing my spouse and you can see how it would be a rough time.

Well yesterday after a particularly rough day something wonderful arrived on my doorstep. I got an order of purple, red, and yellow tulips in a bright pink vase from pro flowers. I was completely stumped to see them. I had definitely not ordered flowers for myself. I couldn't think of anyone else who could have sent them to me. I naturally discounted my husband since he's at training.

Turns out I shouldn't dismiss my hubby so easily. He had somehow ordered the flowers. When I opened the card it was from him. It was a very sweet message that I don't mind sharing:

      I hope these flowers brighten your day and that you will think of me each time you see them. Visions of         you in my mind are what get me through all of the testing I'm going through. I love you more than you  
      know!!
     All my love
     Alex

So I basically have the most thoughtful husband on the planet! This guy is going through combat training and somehow manages to order flowers for me. They were especially thoughtful with how sick I've been. Some day I'll make him tell me how he pulled it off but for now I'll just enjoy the mystery.

p.s. I am NOT allergic to tulips in case anyone was concerned.
