I'll be honest, I don't wake to breakfasts like this every morning, certainly not on weekdays where it's more common to have a couple pieces of toast or some cereal than a cooked breakfast. Breakfasts like this are a Sunday thing.

This was my reality today though and whilst it's a lot of breakfast I could get used to it. My wife Faith cooked this and, whilst it's probably not an overly difficult thing to cook, the fact that she hates cooking makes it a bit more special. Seriously, she passionately hates cooking.

Today I was up super early as I'm driving over three hours away to see a client. It's an unusual thing to have to go so far, but it's a big client and I like to see him in person a couple times a year. Faith wanted me to have a solid breakfast for the trip so she got up way too early to make me this. Nice huh?

You're looking at a couple poached eggs, hash brown, grilled tomato's, sauteed mushrooms, avocado, baked beans and rye toast. Probably way too much food, but I wasn't about to show her anything but gratitude for the effort she made.

We sat and ate together and then I headed away at before 5am for the drive.

I pulled into a roadhouse for a coffee just now and was thinking about how fortunate I am to have Faith in my life; She's so caring, generous and nurturing towards me. I hardly deserve her of course, but feel blessed to have had her in my life for thirty three years.

Making breakfast is a simple thing but the fact she hates cooking makes it a little more special; The fact she'd get up three hours early to do something she hates for me kind of says it all.

I don't know about y'all, but I'd say I'm a lucky fellow to have someone like Faith in my life and not a day goes by in which I don't show my gratitude.

I've planned a nice little night out on Saturday this week so will spoil her a bit, have some fun, relax and hang out with the best person I know. We'll forget our troubles for a while. I'm looking forward to that...But I have to get through Friday first right?

Speaking of which, I'd best get on the road again.

I hope you've all had a great week and Friday goes smoothly for you. Feel free to drop a comment below. Tell me about your week or weekend, what you're planning, or even what you had for breakfast...Hive is about engagement and I enjoy chatting with you guys so...Go on.
