The Best Present for a Hubby's Birthday!

First off I would like to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the best Guy in the world!  You are the best husband I could ask for!  
On that note, I got him the best thing for his birthday, the chance to change my flat tire on my way to Seminary this morning!  I left at my usual time (around 6:15) to go to Seminary this morning and noticed an odd sound as I was driving through the parking lot.  I got out to investigate and found that my back right tire was totally flat.  I found the closest parking spot and walked back to our apartment to find my freshly-showered Birthday Boy getting ready for the day.  "Guess what I got your for your Birthday?  A flat tire!"  I thought about changing it myself (I am quite capable), but then decided I would get in trouble if I tried by myself.  My job was to hold the flashlight while Mike changed out the tire to the spare.  
This whole process then made him late for the bus so I took him to school and ended up missing Seminary all together.  Thankfully, Pres. Davis was willing enough when I called him at 6:30 to look after my class for me.  
The good part of the story is that we had bought the road-care protection package on our tires and we got a brand-new tire for free!  Who knew those warrantees actually were useful!
Thanks again Mike for being such a good sport and changing the tire at 6:30 am!  I love you!

Just the fact that you are quite capable of changing a flat tire is amazing in and of itself. I really need to learn...someday...soon. Hey, if you did change the tire you could have had a BABY on Mike's birthday...that would've been cool! Every time I look at your widget, I can't believe how close your due date is.

Happy Birthday, Mike! You are truly a good sport. We miss hanging out with you guys (like the time we got to every night on our cruise).

I am so sorry that you had such a tough time getting to seminary. I hope you are feeling well. We'll catch each other on the phone one of these times!
