[00:57.24]Her husband had come home early and prepared a festive 3 meal.


[01:02.35]She wondered if someone from the office had tipped him off,

[01:11.97]She found him in the kitchen and told him the good news.


[01:15.91]They embraced and kissed, then sat down to the wonderful meal.

[01:25.21]It read: “Congratulations, darling! I knew you’d get the raise!


[01:30.79]These things will tell you how much I love you.”


[01:34.29]Following the supper, her husband went into the kitchen to clean up.


[01:39.10]She noticed that a second card had fallen from his pocket.


[01:43.59]Picking it off the floor, she read: “Don’t worry about not getting the raise!


[01:49.72]You deserve it anyway! These things will tell you how much I love you.”


[01:54.86]Someone has said that the measure of love is when you love without measure.

[02:12.36]He stands with her, no matter what life throws in their direction.
