I was reading through some old posts the other day and I realized that more than once I've put down my husband. I feel bad about this; despite having moments of frustration, I really do love him. He is a great father, a hard worker, uber smart, and a God loving man. He is also ridiculously patient (a quality that helps make "us" work since I am not patient).
The past few weeks my church Mother's Fellowship has been going over a book called "For Women Only" that talks about loving our husbands and understanding their needs. It's given me some perspective over the day to day interactions I have with my husband and I've realized how I need to improve my attitude towards him. Not only to strengthen our marriage, but to make me a better mother too. If I'm stressed and feeling tense or angry towards Mr.P, it's going to affect how I mother my children.
This afternoon I wrote Mr.P a little love note and I taped it to his computer screen so that when he comes home this evening he will find a little note expressing my gratitude for all that he does. It makes me smile to think about how surprised he will be.
