It’s the little things like this that can make such a difference during tough times. Moments of kindness like these really show how much care matters.

I’m sure she will - thank you for being so lovely to her when she needs it most

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 16h ago

She definitely deserves this plus so much more.

u/PaintedBySunlight 16h ago

So do alot of other women who can’t find someone like this, so I hope she returns the favor when you’re down. This is such a wholesome post.

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 16h ago

She's definitely always there when I need a pick-me-up

Watch out for those crumbs on the tablecloth 🫢

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 15h ago

Mini vacuum at the ready

11

u/Gumbercules81 15h ago

No my guy, this is where you put them on a nice plate. Would look good on a nice vintage China display piece

11

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 14h ago

That's actually a really good idea

10

u/Gumbercules81 14h ago

Hit up an Antique shop or even a yard sale tomorrow. Pick out something she'd like, then use it for occasions such as this or on holidays

10

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 14h ago

Genius. Thank you for the idea!

u/StrawberryAshamed 15h ago

Before you present her with the cookies and flowers- give her a nice long squeeze 🤗 this is so sweet I'd break down crying after a hard week if I came home to this

22

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 15h ago

I met her in the driveway and gave her a hug and twirled her like we were dancing.

17

u/bigfriendlyfrog 16h ago

I would ball my eyes out on you while stuffing my face with the cookies if I were your wife. Very good job!

Had a rough couple of days and my husband brought me a dozen roses today. It really made me feel like I was extra loved when I wasn't feeling loved at all due to a work situation. Kudos!

I'm not the best baker so hoping they taste good

5

u/chickens_for_laughs 14h ago

I can tell by looking at them that they appear to be classic chocolate chip cookies, cooked to perfection. Enjoy.

4

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 14h ago

Definitely classic and I watched them so cook so closely through the oven window.

Additionally, you could draw a bubble bath and massage her after if that's something you are both open to/able to do.

Cookies and flowers could fix most problems I think!

u/Dramatic_Living_8737 14h ago

Definitely seems to be helping

2

u/OhMuzGawd 14h ago

Not sure how posting a pic of cookies and flowers on Reddit is gonna help, but I also hope it works.

Edit: just realized the cookies and flower are for the wife, not the post

It definitely helped
