Will wonders never cease?

I found out last night that my husband is trying to set up a get together with my friends for my birthday. I was kinda surprised by that. My husband is wonderful and loving and a great guy, but he is not one to take the initiative and do something special for me for my birthday. He usually needs a lot of prodding if I decide there is something in particular I want to do. I don't know if he's just trying to do something for me just because I'm going to turn 30 or if it's because he wants to go hunting more because it's the last weekend or if he really just does love me and wants to be and celebrate with me. It's probably a combination of all 3. I know I should just sit back and enjoy it, but I have a hard time with that. I'm used to being the one to make the plans and figure out what we're going to do and I have sort of a hard time not doing it at all. I usually try to have Gary involved in making plans and doing things, but most of the time he is completely content to let me make all of the decisions and I guess I've really gotten used to having that role in our marriage. Writing this down and reading it makes me really think I sound kind of like a control freak, which I'm not, I don't think, but every so often he does this and it just kind of throws me off and kind of takes me out of my comfort zone. Man, I know I had issues, but who knew I would figure them out and kinda self medicate on a blog! I think that's why I really enjoy this. I get to sort out my million mile an hour jumbled thoughts and write them down and sort through them. Now I'm starting to feel like I'm rambling, so I'm going to stop. ;)
