(No, not like that…)
Last week I was hard at work in the (home) office when Steph came home from running some errands.
She said there was something she wanted to show me.
I was a little resistant at first, because I didn’t want to loose my work momentum, and especially because she needed to use the computer, which meant I had to disconnect a handful of programs. But I got up, expecting her to show me some video of a baby on a mommy blog she likes to read.
Instead, she said that she had heard a song in the car.
She went to youtube and found this video, picked up our son, and said, “This song is all about your daddy.”
…just about made me cry
I share this not to brag -- if you know me, you know that I don’t deserve her sweet compliment.
But this is just a reminder that little gestures of love and admiration to your spouse can go a long way.
In my case, I made this the ringtone for when Steph calls me. Every time she calls, I’m challenged to prioritize my thinking, and I’m encouraged!
What can you do today?
