i can't surprise quinn for the life of me! just the other day he found out what he is getting for his birthday and i just about lost it! he, on the other hand, surprises me about once a day. easter morning wasn't any different.
so, a few days ago i asked quinn if i could get jayden an easter basket, his reply was no, saying that he was too young and we shouldn't spend money on easter anyways. easter morning rolls around and i wake up to quinn and jayden's shining faces, quinn's eyes wide with a huge smile, saying, "did the easter bunny come?!"
i shot him a glance of "oh no you din't!" and ran out the bedroom door to find a trail of chocolate easter eggs leading from our bedroom to the living room, where i found a gorgeous daffodil plant, lots of candy, and a few other presents just waiting for me! he must have done this in the middle of the night! i jumped up and down and squealed like a little girl, with tears coming to my eyes thinking of how sweet and thoughtful my husband is. growing up with 10 kids in my family, we never got easter baskets, so this was so exciting for me.
seeing how quinn made me think that we weren't doing anything for easter, i didn't get him anything, and felt stupid right away, to which his reply was, "you give me something every day". awwwwwww. or in quinn's words, "how did a girl like me get a guy like you?"

your hubby is the sweetest ever!!! Just come back and practice in Boise when you are done and all will be well!
I'm obsessed. Quinn makes too many guys look bad! But keep it up! I'm impressed that he pulled that whole thing off with a crazy schedule and one car! Props.
