Last week I had to take my darling daughter shopping for an outfit to wear to a family wedding.
Since my eldest daughter doesn't like to shop, I knew the trip was going to be difficult – and yes, that's an understatement.
When I came out of the mall after a stressful few hours I was surprised to find that my van had been moved in the parking lot. Yep, it had been moved three spots away.
No, I was not losing my mind.
My van was also clean and full of gas.
The note inside said this was a gift from my secret admirer.
Yep, while I was inside the mall Tired-Papa had driven there, picked up our van, filled it with gas, washed it and returned it to the lot.
Personally? I think it's the sweetest thing ever.
Some ladies that I know? Told me that he must be feeling guilty about something or having an affair.
Ah no, he's not. He was being NICE.
And he is nice - very nice. And that is just one of the many reasons why I love Tired-Papa so much.
Thanks, hon.
Oh my, I do think this is one of the most thoughtful and romantic things I’ve ever heard of. I’ve never really been a flowers and candy kind of girl — this is the kind of thing that really makes me swoon. You’ve got a keeper!

It’s those very ordinary sorts of things that are often the sweetest. And what a way to make something as ordinary as gassing up the Momvan very sweet. Well done, Tired Papa!
