Making My Husband's Day Easier Helps Me Too
10/31/2014


I like to do little, unobtrusive things to help my husband. For example, I don't just pick up his shirts from the cleaner; I also take off the twisty that binds the hangers together, undo and discard the plastic bags and paper shoulder covers, and remove the ID tags that are stapled in the buttonhole. That way he can just grab one and get dressed in the morning without dealing with all that stuff. The funny thing is, I find that doing these little things for him throughout the day provides me the time and an excuse to be thinking about him at random moments, and that makes me miss him, which pays dividends when he does get home. It makes him happy and it makes me very happy -- trying to state that in a daytime-friendly, G-rated way! 

Thanks for what you do. If I only listened to the popular culture or the other moms on the playground benches, I would have no idea what glorious creatures men are. 

Best wishes, 

Sara
