Email of the Day

I've found that to be my husband's girlfriend doesn't always take a lot of grand gestures. For example, I don't just pick up his shirts from the cleaners.  I take off the twisty thing that holds the hangers together, I undo and discard the plastic bags and paper shoulder covers, and I remove the ID tags that are stapled to the buttonhole.  That way, he can just grab a shirt and get dressed in the morning without dealing with all that stuff. 

I find that doing these little things for him throughout the day provides me the time and excuse to be thinking about him at random moments.  That makes me miss him, which pays dividends when he does get home, if you catch my drift.  It makes him happy and it makes me happy.

Thank you for your ongoing guidance.  If I only listened to the popular culture of the other moms on the playground benches, I would have no idea what glorious creatures men really are.
