Just Because...

You may or may not know that I HATE gifts on Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Christmas, my birthday, and anniversary.  I call them "obligatory" presents and Andy doesn't give me anything on those days, not because HE doesn't want to but because I don't want him to.  He has tried and I usually make him take it back.  I know, I'm so mean but just because a date rolls around doesn't mean that I really need or want anything at that particular time.  This doesn't mean that I never get flowers or presents because there are 360 other days in the year that Andy will surprise me with the "Just Because..." gifts.  So yesterday, March 4th, just an ordinary day, Andy got the day off and had to go up to our house in Ogden to replace the dryer.  Andy being the most WONDERFUL husband picked up on the subtle clues that I really want a new camera and bought me this: 
Nikon D40

Really, I was not expecting it at all and that's what made the present SO wonderful!  I love getting presents "Just Because..."
