Congratulations! It sounds like your Hubby has finally gotten round and seen what YOU think is best and what YOU think is of value.
Often, it only takes time but loved ones do come around.
Indeed, you are very lucky!

I think I know why I'm not married now. I would have ordered me up a cleaning service whether he liked it or not....lol

*ahhhh* (that's a sigh of relief) what a WONDERFUL gift. My house is so tiny right now I couldn't imagine having a cleaning service in, but 6200+sq.ft.!!! I couldn't imagine NOT having a cleaning service. I can't believe you've even managed to keep it up THIS long. What a sweet hubby, even if he didn't realize it

You are a saint. If I had 6200 sq ft to clean, there would have been a cleaning service husband or no husband. Fortunately, my husband is always the one making ME get the service. I've had a few brain blips where I thought I really could clean the house on my own . . .mmm, not really. And mine's about half the size.
But, I give your husband lots and lots of credit for recognizing that this would be something that was a truly wonderful gift, perhaps for both of you!
Now you just have to work on that babysitting thing. We have a sitter once per week, and without our regular "dates" I can't imagine the state our relationship would be in.

Ohhhh, lucky you, I just love cleaning especially if someone else does it. Fawn over it and brag about it, in front of him, and you will puff him up so much that he will want to do it again.

When you first mentioned in passing that you do your housework I was momentarily stunned into silence (a difficult feat for me). Why? I wondered. There is NOTHING wrong with doing housework and I would NEVER imply that there was. BUT...yes, big BUT if someone does not enjoy housework and they have the mean to hire somoen else to do it, then it makes sense to hire someone. After all that SOMEONE wants the job.
More to come...

More!
I will admit that there are a few house-tending things I actually enjoy. BUT I only have a 1200 square foot apartment and I have a weekly cleaning service. And soon I will have a house that is somewhat larger than that (you have seen pictures) and there is no way in HECK I would clean it myself.
So, this is a very good thing this gift. And although NOT Southern it does make my dear Southern friend happy...so this is good,

That is WONDERFUL! I agree - I'll take a cleaning service over a box of chocolates or dozen roses any day!

That is so thoughtful of your hubby. See, they come around!
I got here through Cyndy's. How do I know what kind of Poppy I am? Do I put people to sleep like the poppies on The Wizard of Oz?

That's an incredible gift -- both just because it's an AWESOME GIFT TO HAVE but also just that your hubby did it! Woo hoo! 
p.s. I'm sorry I've been silent lately -- I haven't been able to visit a number of my favorite sites for over a WEEK! I'm back now!

I would definitely agree. What mom and wife would see this any different. A lot of times, those of us who don't have those services, have to do all the work before we can even enjoy our valentine celebration or any celebration for that matter. So, I agree that's a great and intuitive gift to give so you could be freed up to enjoy your day with him!

That is the most awesomely romantic and thoughtful gift I've heard of in a good long time: it's something you truly wanted, truly needed, and it will also give you more time to do other things you love.
