Father’s Day Gift – Side Story

Since my wife already divulged everything that happened on Father’s day at her blog, I’ll just add in a few details that she left out.

I am used to her style of giving, she either gives me something extravagant, or nothing at all. And usually, these extravagant things are not what I was expecting – but I still end up liking. Last year she surprised me with a 4th Gen iPod Touch, it was totally unexpected because I am a Windows guy that think Mac stuff is for simpletons. Ironically, I loved the iPod touch and it led us to be more interested with Apple products. To make the long story short, we now have an iPad and a Macbook Pro and we love them both.

Her gift this time around was an expensive perfume, she was planning to surprise me with it but Zyke being the honest kid easily spilled the beans when we spoke over the phone before they went home. The decision to give me a perfume was another one of her unexpected and extravagant gifts – because I have been complaining to her that I have too many colognes and perfumes, that I didn’t know which one to use. They are of the cheaper kind, but I am quite content with them. The last thing I wanted was another Perfume and an expensive one at that! But just like before, I ended up liking her gift, which I easily became grateful for. Maybe it’s not the gifts that I like, but the giver. Thanks for the gifts!
