Luckiest man in the world

As is often the case, I fell asleep in bed last night while reading or playing with a new gadget or something like that, and Wilbert was still upstairs playing on his computer. But for the first time ever, I fell asleep with my socks still on (a sign that I was deeply engaged with a new gadget, because my socks usually get ripped off the first moment I walk in the door!). When he came down to go to sleep, Wilbert gently woke me in the dark and asked sweetly, "Can I take your socks off for you, honey?" and proceeded to do so. That had to be about one of the sweetest, simplest things anyone has ever done for me, and it touched me deeply. I'm really lucky to have him in my life. Ik hou van je, mijn lieve huppel puppie!
