Quarterbacks always have the sensitive egos, so . . . ;)
Seriously, a great list. I tend to think of myself more as a cheerleader. I know the amount of encouragement I give really affects how my husband sees himself. If he is down, it's often because I'm not doing my job well!
Love these. So many areas I can improve in....
A great list, thank you!
The Quarterback is the team leader and must be followed for all the plays. And thanks GlowinGirl...I snorted my iced coffee...they have sensitive egos! HAHAHA!
Great list...gonna put it on my fridge for a while.
Great list...wonderful reminder...even after 30 years I still need to remember!
Thanks...oh, love the Iron his clothes...lets see, it has been probably 23 years since I did that...LOL
Cleaners for those dress shirts!
What a great list! Thanks for sharing this!
How wonderful!!! I would say listen to him without interrupting him...it makes him feel respected. Greet him with a kiss whenever he returns home.
I love your list!!! Wonderful!!! I am going to share a link to this on my blog's facebook page! Thanks in advance! :-)
I love your style!--just started following your blog!
This was great!
Great list - I would add "sing when he walks through the door" I have a fun silly welcome home song that I sing - and even if I drive him crazy I manage to get a smile : D
I LOVE this list....I may refer my readers back to this post if that's ok! Would I add anything? just one thing comes to mind because it is something I have to remember to do daily as it really aids my hubby: Speak his Love Language! (assuming one knows it!). Bless you...this was great!
