I Went to Surprise My Husband at Work—His Colleague Looked at Me With Tears and Asked, “He Hasn’t Told You Anything, Has He?”

Personal limits matter.

Mine allowed another attempt.

His behavior made that attempt worthwhile.

Years later, if Garrett says:

“I need to tell you something,”

I still feel a small drop in my stomach.

Maybe I always will.

Then he tells me.
