Dolly Parton celebrated her husband of 57 years this week in a way that sent the Internet whirling. She got creative to fulfill a long-standing promise to her husband and it was all in an effort to make him smile. We love the way Dolly continues to honor the love of her life and embody the idea of Sunday Paper Love!
