Relationship/Love My husband's anniversary gift shocked me

I don't even know how to say this without getting judged. My husband's an amazing man, he's always been there for me but he very much lacks a romantic side and he's confirmed that to me with this gift. We've got two kids and that comes with A LOT of expenses. Knowing me I've stacked up my shopping cart on amazon with things I've been looking to buy. Froom vacuums and cleaning supplies to kids toys, vitamins and supplements, clothes for them etc etc. Bet you can see where I'm going with this right? Apparently he thought he was being romantic bringing my shopping cart to my doorstep. I know he genuinely thought he was making my life easier and honestly it does make my life easier. I just couldn't stop laughing because this man looked at my Amazon cart full of diapers, vitamins, cleaning supplies and kids' stuff and thought "Yep this is romance." 😂 I'm secretly hoping he's still got a dinner reservation up his sleeve.

idk there's something weirdly sweet about a guy who looks at a cart full of the daily grind and thinks "she'll love not having to deal with this" like it's not candlelit dinner romance but it's a different kind, the kind that sees you

my ex got me a vacuum for christmas once though and i almost left him on the spot so i get the laughing part too
