My wife felt anxious this morning
I had work to do....but encouraged her to get away. I would watch the kids.
An hour later she returned home
With donuts and an iced coffee for each of us
And a SMILE.
Take care of your partner first
It’s ALWAYS worth it.
Like any good dip, there are 8 layers to a Midwestern goodbye:
- about to leave warning
- a "we've gotta go" statement
- hugs
- walking to the doorway
- one more conversation in the doorway
- more hugs
- talking while everyone's piling in the doorway
- placing hand on doorknob
