Wait but who cleaned them all up

For real, this is dumb, at best

My husband is not a PDA type person but when our children were young and now with our grandchildren the love he shows for them often melts me. And, he still loves to have sex with a grandmother so I have no complaints.

This is a combination most romantic thing he's done and the stupidest thing I've done. My husband was going to be in Europe on business for ten days and invited me to join him in Paris for a long weekend at the end of the trip. We'd be staying at The Bristol hotel which is glorious. He invited me about two weeks before the trip and I said no given we had three young kids and I'd need to find a sitter etc. etc. All of my GF's rightfully thought I was an idiot for saying no and they were right. Thankfully we've been to Paris a couple of times since and he makes a point of reminding me of my turn down.

You are an idiot! Did he call a friend?

Most romantic thing. We hiked down to Captain Cook Monument at Kealakekua Bay for the first time. Stupidly brought big backpacks of towels, snorkel gear. Not quite enough water.
On the way back up I told him to go on ahead (we had water in car and he was fitter) and I would trudge up slowly. About 3/4 way up, I saw him coming back down with water. He carried my pack back up.
Totally unexpected.

Sweet but not practical or hygienic and certainly risk of allergy for the baby.

Was he helping to find a sitter? That seems like no small task

My husband and I aren’t big gesture types. He’s considerate and I love the things he does to show he’s thinking of me (like sending goofy memes during the day or picking up my favorite snack at the store) but I had trouble thinking of the last thing I’d call romantic. Then today I was thinking of a Spotify playlist he made for me just because and how that made me smile.

This was the furthest thing from my mind and is such a weird thought/response. There is no reason to think a newborn baby would be in any way harmed by or allergic to flowers. Did not raise my kid in a bubble and doing so makes them more prone to allergies not less.

I’m responding to my own post….i totally forgot that, when we were dating I was sad because my favorite animal left the zoo. That year for Christmas he gave me tickets for us to fly to the new city where the animal had moved / spend the weekend exploring a city. That was really fun and it was nice seeing the animal in its new home.

Eh, he probably thought you might die down there and he'd be stuck doing a bunch of paperwork

I feel like this isn't romantic, this is just the right thing to do. Like if a guy left me and chilled at the car while I struggled, he would not be my boyfriend for much longer.
