Sometimes I want to kick him

Having a husband is wonderful. He supports me, brings me back down to earth, lifts me up to see my potential, and makes me laugh--all at the same time. But, before we get carried away in romantic nonsense, I am going to admit that sometimes I really just want to kick him.

Don't feel bad if you feel the same way. It's only natural, or so I'm told.

Do what I do: Look him firmly in the eye and say, "I love you, but I don't like you right now." Smile. You've been honest, and it will get better. If he continues to bother you, you have my permission to pinch him.
