Like most couples, Steven and I have certain chores that have defaulted to being "assigned" to both of us. One of my chores is the dishes. It is my most loathed chore. The irony in this, is that I am the one who told Steven I would take on this chore.
For a week now I have been slacking, and in the mean time the dishes kept piling and piling up out of the sink, onto the counter, and even onto the other counter. I said to Steven every night, "I will do them tomorrow, I swear," fully knowing it was my own fault for letting them pile up into an aweful mess. Well, what I came home to today after work was a spotless kitchen. What a nice surprise.
It is little acts of kindness like this that make me feel so great and inspire me to go beyond what is expected of me...and to do someone else's chores sometimes.

That is so nice. And I love your window treatment. Very cute.
Yay for Steven!
Let him know it's good preparation for when you get pregnant... :)
Did Steven take credit for the clean kitchen? I totally snuck into your house and cleaned your kitchen. What a punk!
