- Listen to him. You may have a dozen important things to tell him; but the moment of his arrival is not the time. Let him talk first-remember his topics of conversation are more important than yours.
- Make the evening his. Never complain if he comes home late or goes out to dinner, or other places of entertainment without you. Instead, try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need to be home and relax.
- Your goal: try to make sure your home is a place of peace, order and tranquility where your husband can renew himself in body and spirit.
- Make him comfortable. Have him lean back in a comfortable chair or have lie down in the bedroom. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him.
Ladies.....these last four are my favorites.....I've italicized the parts I particularly like..
- Arrange his pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and pleasant voice.
- Don't complain if he's late for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day.
- Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgement or integrity. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him.
- A good wife always knows her place.
Suggested place for a woman...note attire, meal suggestion and saucy little look.
