Today's Truth: Appreciation Matters

I need to feel appreciated. By my husband.

It's not enough to praise me "silently". I sometimes need to hear that what I do is important, too.

I work full time. I take classes at the local university a few nights a week (I didn't graduate college because we got married and I had to drop out of school).

So anyway, I work and I go to school. Not only that but I do literally everything around the house: take care of the kids, fix dinner, do errands and appointments, clean, do the laundry, wash the dishes, take out the trash-- even pick up dog poop at the backyard. Except for the fact that he pays most of the bill, I literally run a one-man show!

I'm not asking to be given a pat at the back every single time I do something! I just want to hear this words once in a while: "I appreciate you."

You have no idea how much this will save a crumbling marriage!
