热恋中的我们将维持激动人心的恋情视为对自己的挑战，更重要的是，要有意外的惊喜。我对那一天仍记忆犹新：那天是我生日。工作了一整天后，我期待着回家与朋友们外出共进晚餐，然后早早上床休息，但是，天哪，我竟遇到了惊喜……我把车开进家门前的道上时，看到一只大玩具熊在房前的台阶上放着，熊身上系着一张纸条。我微笑着把纸条慢慢打开……上面写着“H”。打开家门后，我在狗狗那里看到另一张纸条，上面写着“A”。真想知道他这是做什么。我走上楼梯，进了主人卧室。看到床上满是玫瑰花，上面还放着另一张纸条，这张写着“w”。
我发现床头柜上有一个圆盒子，便迫不及待地把它打开……里面也有一张小纸条，上边写有字母“A”。我笑了，喊着他的名字，心中却依然迷惑不解。我抑制住兴奋的情绪，进厨房找他或者更多的字母。就像每天下班后所做的那样，我开始为自己泡一杯茶，这时我发现他在前门等着，如往昔一样迷人，脸上洋溢着灿烂的笑容，那暖暖的笑容甚至能将你融化。我听到他问道：“亲爱的，生日过得怎么样？”我走向他，笑道：“很好，亲爱的。”他问：“你看到冰箱里的东西了吗？”我笑着马上跑过去看。冰箱门一打开，生日蛋糕上的两个“I”字母就映入我的眼帘。
我转过身，问他：“亲爱的，这是什么意思啊？”他答道：“把所有的字母拼在一起看，我在外边等你。”我站在那里将这些字母放在一起：H—A—W—A—I—I（夏威夷）！此时，我才恍然大悟。于是来到门外，看到他站在那里，手上拎着行李箱和一个漂亮的花环，一切都准备好了……奔赴神奇的夏威夷！生活中的又—个小小惊喜让我度过了欢乐的时光。
Still madly in love，we challenge ourselves to keep our relationship exciting，filled with surprises and most importantly the unexpected.I still remember this day like yesterday：It was my birthday and I worked all day.I came home expecting to go out for supper with friends and get to bed early，but，my god，was I in for a surprise...As I pulled up in the driveway I noticed a note tied to this great big teddy bear on the steps to my home.I smiled，and slowly started to open the note..，it read“H”.As I opened the door，there was my dog，waiting with another note，which read“A”.I wondered what he was up to as I went up the stairs to the master bedroom.The bed was full of roses and there lay another note，this one read“W”.I noticed on the night table a ring box and immediately started to tear it open...as I opened it，there was a little piece of paper with the letter“A”on it.I started to laugh and call out his name，still wondering what he was up to.I pulled myself together and went to the kitchen looking for him or more letters.As I do every day after work，I started to make myself a cup of tea when I noticed him，waiting，as beautiful as ever，next to the front door，with the most amazing smile，the type of smile that makes you melt，and then I heard，“How was your day，my love？”I walked towards him and smiled，and said，“Wonderful，honey.”He asked，“Did you notice what was in the fridge？”I started to laugh and went to see.As I opened the fridge door，I saw the letters“II”on my birthdaycake.I turned to him and asked，“Honey，what are you up to？”He replied，“Put all of those together and I’m going to be waiting for you outside.”I stood there placing the letters together...H-A-W-A-I-I！By the time I realized what I was reading and got outside，my love was standing there with my suit cases and a beautiful flower necklace ready to go...to wonderful Hawaii！I had a wonderful time in another of life’s little wonders.
