I dont know if anyone remembers this, but just before Christmas I posted that I had to turn down a desperately wanted gold birkin. I was really concerned becuase my lovely SA was leaving and I seemed to have slid off the store's radar.
Well......My "nobody loves me" mood continued over Christmas, when my only pressie from DH was a necklace I had bought myself, and into New Year, which is a bad time for me. Then my youngest got chicken pox and I was up 4-5 times a night as she was so poorly.
We went on holiday on Jan 5 and my birthday is on Jan 7. I didnt want to take my presents on holiday, but I did take all my birthday cards. On the morning of my birthday I had a glass of champagne in bed and opened my card whilst my girls sang "Happy birthday dear mummy" very cutely!
A couple of days in the sun had cheered me up no end and I opened the card from my husband to find a picture of a Birkin in, and he had written "all I can do for now" on it. I thought it was his idea of a joke and to be honest I didnt think it was very funny! But he then said, with a smile, after I had called him and told him I had turned down the gold birkin he had realised how important it was to me, how hard life had been lately and hotfooted over to the store and bought it!

What a wonderful DH you've got there, eliselady. Can't wait to see photos of your latest acquisition. Kudos to you for picking such a thoughtful hubby!
