Email of the Day: Little Things Mean A Lot

Email of the Day: Little Things Mean A Lot

I’ve been on a mission to treat my husband more kindly. We’ve been married 19 years, and I did choose wisely and work hard at treating kindly, but I’m always looking for ways to improve. So, I bought a bunch of β€œlovey” cards to have on hand just to surprise him with from time to time.

 

I put the first one under his pillow. He was really surprised, and frankly, kind of leery about it, like β€œwhat is up with this?” Then we had great sex! I gave him the next one just last week. We were both feeling somewhat β€œpissy” toward each other over an impending kitchen remodel. I heard my β€œinner Dr. Laura,” and thought this would be a good time for a card, even though I wasn’t really feeling it. So, the next card went on his desk. I watched him head into his office, wondering what his reaction would be this time. Well, the next thing I knew, he was working on a project I had asked him to do forever! He made no mention of the card; he just started working on the project. Later in the day, he did thank me for the card. We both ended up feeling β€œback on track,” and my cute little fireplace in the den finally was working again.

 

You always say that little things mean a lot, and I can confirm that! I have a few more cards left, and I will definitely restock.
