Oh, these are some good ideas. I’m reading the book, “The Excellent Wife” and it is a pretty amazing read.

I love this post. You’re right, sometimes it IS hard to be supportive when his job takes him away from me or our daughter. But when I hear myself being less-than-supportive, I always feel terrible. It is his job, after all, that allows for me to stay at home and write.

Great to meet you at Blissdom!

Great post! And, I find it easy to remember that I REALLY LIKE it when my husband brags on me in front of others. That in itself is such a big reminder that I need to do that for him too. He needs to see and hear that I tell others how great he is!

What an awesome series…
I think about this…my hubby, and how to help him daily. I HAVE to force myself to think to ask him “what can I do for you”….
I make his lunch (because I force him to save money), he works at a horrible job (because of the need for money)…and he does it all..because he’s a great man.
I help him by telling him multiple times daily just that…
and those little notes…those DO mean the world to him. (or, nowadays…texting little notes throughout the day seem to help him get through!)
What a sweet wife you are!
Hope you had fun at the conference!

I love this series as well. It is very easy to assume our “guys” have it all together and don’t need our encouragement, but in fact I know mine does. It builds him up to know that I think he is the greatest, strongest, best husband ever! Thank you for the reminder to keep him a priority, even when I get tired and feel overwhelmed!

Thanks for writing this series, Amy. I probably haven’t been the best wife that I can be lately because I’ve been so focused on my own pressures of suddenly being the primary provider for our family. I guess I haven’t stopped to consider how difficult it must be for my husband to have such an uncertain role now… I definitely need to think on all of this.

Anyhow, I’m so happy I got to meet you this weekend! Your husband is a lucky man — glad he managed without you.
