In Paris for the first time this spring, I noticed the pencil skirted, kitten heel wearing cyclists, and the little kids on scooters, often accompanied by a swiftly walking parent.

My face, like yours would have become one huge smile from lips to eyes if my husband had done this. It's the little things that show how they love us ....and vice versa!!
