Dear Dr. Laura,

My husband goes out every day to slay dragons for me and my daughter. Last week he was under quite a bit of stress at work and called home to tell me he wouldn't be home in time to have dinner with us. He then asked if it was ok to workout at his gym knowing he would miss seeing our daughter before I took her to water polo practice. I left him a nice dinner in the oven and two notes. The first was left on the kitchen counter saying "Have a great workout. Big Hug!" The second note I left in the drawer where he keeps his workout clothes. The note said "Let's have some fun tonight." On top of the note was a pair of my sexiest panties. Needless to say he walked in from his workout with a big smile, gave me a sweaty hug and kiss and said "Your notes made my night."

Even after 13 years of marriage I am amazed that such a small gesture on my part could make such a huge impact on my marriage. I love listening to you. Keep up the good fight.

Marianne

P.S. And yes...we had fun that night.
