A few weeks ago one of my favorite yoga instructors shared
this quote during class, “What you spend your time doing is what you are
committed to.” While this seems like a blatantly obvious observation, it really
got me thinking.
The hubs works so hard in school and spends so much time and
energy studying, there is no arguing that he is committed to medicine. At the
same time, I’m grateful for days like today that remind me that he is still
just as committed to me.
Last year he bought me an orchid, my favorite flower, but
over the summer it died. I was sad but got over it and forgot about it. Yesterday was a crazy day and I really
only saw the doc for about two hours after I got home from work. I fell asleep
early (while reading Emily Giffin’s new novel because she’s one of my favorite)
and woke up to a lovely surprise: my favorite Kashi cereal, fat-free milk (we
were out and he only drinks 2% and knows how much I hate it) and a beautiful
new orchid placed in our kitchen window. I honestly had butterflies in my
stomach and the feeling you get on Christmas morning.
Despite his crazy schedule I’m so grateful he takes the time
to show me he cares. So a little shout out to the doc, thanks for the love!
