Boyfriend

Have I mentioned that I have a wonderful boyfriend?  I probably have but I thought I would mention it again.  As of recent him and I have both been going through some challenging times.  He has definitely had it harder then me by far, but I would probably say he has a better attitude x10 then me.  I don't quite know how he does it, but he does. 

On Wednesday I was stressed out and had a midterm in the afternoon and I get to see Dirk for like 10 minutes when I come out of my Econ section and before he goes into his french class (they are across the hall from each other).  Well I walk out of econ and there is my amazing boyfriend sitting in the hall with a rose in his lap for me.  He is so sweet.  And he does this for me after having been home to visit his grandpa the night before because his grandma passed away on Halloween morning. 

He does little things like this for me all the time.  I think once you have been dating someone for a while, you tend to stop noticing the small things that they do for you that not everyone does.  I realized this last night while I was at work.  I have to admit, I do not enjoy my job.  It is easy though and I guess I should be thankful to even have a job.  But I was going through doing cleaning and stuff preparing for closing and I was in the middle of sweeping the whole store when the phone rang.  So I ran (literally) to the front desk from the back of the store to answer the phone.  And when I come back...the sweeping is all done.  Well one of the massage therepists finished sweeping for me.  I was SO shocked.  It just like made my night to have someone do a small act of random kindness.  I know it wasn't much, but I guess I have gotten used to no one doing anything nice for me at work so it threw me off.  So while driving home it kidn of occured to me that I have people in my life do small little things for me all the time, specifically my boyfriend and my mom.  And I totally take advantage of that and don't apprechiate it like I should.

Anyways, I am in my geology class and should be paying attention.  But...I just wanted to brag a little bit about the amazing man that God has provided in my life. :-)
