The Little Things

I was just thinking the other day... about how we are usually aware of the big reasons that we care for our significant others. But sometimes, one of the little things that they do really stands out and makes you remember why it is that you love them, or makes you realize just how much they love you.

It has become a routine of mine, that when I walk in the door from work the first thing I do is kick of my heels and usually say something about my feet hurting. They are usually quickly replaced with my good 'ol comfy flip-flops. This is not something I really think about, just a usual ritual.

Monday when I got home from work, Jason was waiting outside the house for me to pick him up. We were headed to the grocery store to pick up something for dinner. He got in the car and handed me my flip-flops. I had not asked for them. He just was thoughtful enough to know that I would like to wear my comfy flip-flops to the grocery store rather than wear those heels for one more hour on my sore feet.

It is those kinds of things that we should stop and notice. Those kinds of simple little things say "I love you" and "I care." I'm so lucky to have Jason in my life.
