I know there are some fantastic husbands out there. I have one myself. These fantastic husbands are fantastic in many different ways. I'll explain. Some shower their wife with gifts, some allow their wife to shop all she wants, some take trips and some know just what to do in the moment to make their wife smile. My husbands happens to have the gift of cleaning. Now, this gift I speak of is almost rare in the male species. But my man likes a clean house and he knows I can't do it all with 4 kids.
A couple of Wednesday nights ago I took the kids to church. I have Bible study and the kids have their activities but Aaron has been on second shift so long that he wanted to stay and enjoy the quiet of the house for a little bit. Anyway, the kids and I went and left daddy at home. I had a great study and the kids were behaved for the most part. I knew something was up when I walked into the house. I smelled cleaner. Both bathrooms and the kitchen had been scrubbed. Even the toilets! This is not a rare things at our house. I can't really remember the last time I deep cleaned the bathroom. Aaron always does it. Why? Because he knows I don't like to.
My guy is good at gift giving but it doesn't happen that often. He has all these great ideas of things he wants to do for me but life happens and, well, he's a guy. So when he cleans the house while I'm away that makes me smile. When was the last time you did a little bragging on your man?
I LOVE this!
ReplyDeleteMy lovely Bill is quite good at picking up...but that's kind of where it stops =) But, I will take it! It makes my time cleaning much faster =) (you know...assuming I ever cleaned)
but you are right...they all have their gifts in different ways
