A Valentine Gift From My Guy

I was an immediate fan of the new

Masterpiece Theatre series

Downtown Abbey.

Now in season 2 my sweet hubby

knows that at 9pm Sunday nights

he is to entertain himself elsewhere

(which he's more than happy to do, during this show!)

while I cozy up in front of the

fire to watch.

The costumes alone, of this period are exquisite!

(I secretly wish this were all back in!)

So, my husband gives me my Valentines gift today

which is this book that I didn't even know

existed...

it's a true story of the real "Downton Abbey"!

He said he read about it in the newspaper

last Sunday and went to

Barnes and Noble and found it!

Now....that is a husband

who knows his wife's heart!

He knows not to buy me flowers,

I buy my own every week.

No jewelry for me!,

I have been wearing the same

cross necklace for 6 years!

But a book about a time that once was...!

Oh and a note that brought tears!

That is why at 25 and counting years

he is still my only Valentine.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Sweet Followers!

I hope your day is also

full of sweet surprises!
