IN: Tonight marked the end of a long week , and Paul offered to take the kids home from my folks ' and put them to bed . We had two cars as he had , yet again , devoted a big chunk of his weekend to getting his parents ' house ready for sale -- a never - ending and thankless job if there ever was one . So I took him up on the offer and played hooky for a while . First , I drove down to the house Paul has been cleaning , emptying , repairing , painting , and re - wiring since June .

You came with full of surprises , you ' ve light up my life , you gave me hope and most of all , you ' ve gave me unconditional love that I can never imagine of .
