Love

When I went downstairs at 6AM,

I saw your empty,

unused dish on the counter,

and I had two thoughts.

One: "Oh, yah, I forgot to get some milk yesterday"

Two: "How sweet, he saw there was only drops

left and saved them for the kids"

Then I opened the fridge and saw:

So you had
snuck out the door at 5AM,
went down to the Mart on the corner,
purchased some milk,
quietly came back home,
and stuck it in my fridge,
and then left again
for work.
While I snoozed cosily,
in my bed.
That says somethin'.

super sweet, and a great post to go with it.

Just a thought---I learned you can freeze milk, so I always have a gallon in the freezer for those moments. Might save sweetie pie an early morning trip to the local mart next time!
