24 Rotations around the Sun

Today marks my 24th year of survival. 😅
I had to work since I took Sunday-Wednesday off to go to Utah. So I spent all day at work with the animals. I already got my birthday gift last month (Black Friday) and I didn't have much to be excited about- everything after 21 is just downhill anyways. lol
When I called Micheal on my way home from work he said he had just gotten off and home and wanted to know what I was gonna make for dinner? Same stuff, different day haha.
When I opened the door to our apartment I was in shock!
When I left that morning my house was a WRECK. Between working nonstop all last week and packing last minute to leave for Utah my house was a nightmare. So messy I was afraid I would die during the drive and whomever had to clean out my place afterwards would be mortified. I was DREADING coming home and having to clean the kitchen and dishes. But Michael had gotten off work early and cleaned EVERYTHING for me. All the dishes, the kitchen, the house!
He had gotten me flowers, and a card, and a little stuffed schnauzer (Im obsessed) 
Not only did he get me a card- He wrote me an entire letter inside it! 💕
He baked me a cake! Michael has never baked anything before in his life, but he got one of the cake mixes I had stashed away and it was baked and ready for me to come home.
AND he was in the process of cooking us dinner (Thank you Hello Fresh for step-by-step meal plans!) I did have to finish dinner though 😂 Blacked Penne is a bit complicated and after he attempted to dice a whole bell pepper and then panicked asked me how to get rid of all the seeds everywhere I stepped in.
I felt like I walked into a dream- I never imagined he could pull something like this off. I was totally unsuspecting! Usually I know if he is up to something. I told him I can't explain how amazing this gift is- but it is one of my favorite birthdays ever!
Acts of Service is one of my Love languages and the amount of thought and effort he put into just trying to make me happy makes me so unbelievably grateful that he is mine! 💕 Wether the house was perfect, or the cake was great, or the food tasty (and it all was!) The thought and effort that he put in is all anyone could ever ask for. 
Take notes men- Michael just raised the bar!
He is #Goals
