Show him that you care

My partner has spent half of our week off ripping out the garden and starting again. He's spent the other half taking care of our 21 month old DS. Meanwhile I've been suffering with Covid. This week has not panned out as we hoped!

He's also taken most of his annual leave up with training this year as he's getting qualified for a better paid job.

DH has been brilliant but he seems absolutely exhausted and while it can't be helped, I feel so guilty. He's just left the house with DS for a morning of soft play while I rest.

Any ideas on how to show my appreciation? I'm going to start by popping a thank you card in his bag for him to find when he gets to work tomorrow but I wondered what you do to show your partner compassion? I'd love to say I'd be the same in his situation but honestly I think I'd have had a complete breakdown in his shoes.
