~~ 26 years old ~~

After 26 years, a marriage, a baby, I definitely have to ask myself a few questions. 'What have I done worth-while until now' 'Have my dreams come true' 'Has life turned out to be the way I wanted it to be'. Ha ha . No, no such questions would pop up even if it were my last day on earth. The question thats goes in circles in my mind, before my birthday 'How do I trick my husband into buying me a gift' and the aftermath question varies based on gift or no-gift.

If I've ever said anything mean about Anto, I take it all back, I take it ALL back. He proclaimed himself as 'The Sweetest husband' the other day, the day after he bought me an iPhone(Did u hear me say, for-almost-nothing). He was very pleased with himself, 'Betsy, Am I not the sweetest husband, I bought you a gift even before your birthday'. I agreed.
*Evil Grin* I vowed to myself that 'You aren't gonna look anywhere near so-pleased-with-yourself when I claim my real gift'

The weekend before my birthday, he casually, asked 'Do you wanna buy something?' I gave him enough hints the week before by looking through every jewellery store window near home. Finally, shopping. Anto chose this lovely solitaire and I knew it would blow his budget beyond reach, but he was still smiling. Tats when the sales girl revealed the details, carefully placed tiny diamonds, to look like a solitaire. No, thanks a lot.

Then I chose a lovely earring and Anto was in smiles too. For one second, I thought I would choose another. I mean, he shouldn't be happy about it, he should have that look,'OMG, how the hell will I ever pay for this'. I was too tired to look for another. So, deal done. After deal-done, I found something really big and really expensive, and then the sales girl kindly offered to cancel the previous order and bill this one. Then for one glorious moment, I saw that lovely look on his face. Well, maybe another time *wink*

He is still happy about it which kinda makes me want to run back and change. Well,
all said and done, Its time to say, 'Thanks Anto! I'll agree with you this once! U r the sweetest husband!'
