Dear Dr. Laura:
Last week, I walked into our kitchen and found a glass in the sink. There is a glass in the same sink every morning. My husband puts it in the sink after he takes medication at night. It's there every morning. That day, I was feeling a bit touchy about it, so I put the glass in the dishwasher while waiting for him to come into the kitchen so I could point out my irritation at the glass in the sink every morning.
While I was waiting for him, I noticed on my phone that there were some new activities added to our family calendar. My husband had arranged a lovely trip to wine country, with special cooking classes and dinners to celebrate our 27th anniversary. I decided then and there to keep my mouth shut about the glass. I was about to make an atom-sized annoyance into a mountain with my critical magnifying glass.
He provides for our family by making it possible for me to stay home with our four children. He is kind, generous, patient, a loving father, and a devoted and faithful husband. How often do we women keep picking at our men because of minor annoyances? It's like being pecked to death by a chicken!
You've made an impact on my life, my marriage and my children.
Jennifer
