Well, I guess sometimes you can't plan on what life is going to throw your way. I was in the midst of getting everything ready for our night when H called. He had been in a hit and run car accident on the highway, with our daughter in his truck. They were brought to the hospital to be checked out. I am thankful they were both OK. The cops couldn't find the person that hit him.
So, after flying to the hospital and everything else, by the time it all settled here at home, it was late. I still went through with my plan. I had bought him a shirt and put the copy of the lawyer's letter in the pocket. I had the rings in my pocket. He had blown it earlier when he went searching for his wedding band and couldn't find it. He was panicking so I had to tell him that I had it. Long story short, even without the candles and wine, it was really nice. Some tears were shed, and our rings were put back on.
I have to say the best gift I got was that the two of them were OK after the accident. I couldn't have asked for anything more.
