Email of the Day: I Enjoy Making My Husband’s Day Easy

Written by Dr. Laura | 3/1/23 9:15 AM

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 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.

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!
