Are you wearing that??

True conversation between my husband and I:

Me: “I hate to wear this nightgown– my dad told me it looked terrible on me.”

Hub: “Rude.”

Me: “I like that about my family.  They’re straight talkers.  If your family can’t tell you, then who can?”

Hub: “Your husband.”

Me:” I like that about you too.  It’s one of the many reasons I married you.”

I can always count on my husband’s honest opinion.  Once when I was pregnant I was trying on this dress someone gave me.  I wasn’t sure it was so great, so I did what I usually do when I’m on the fence: ask for my husband’s opinion.

He took one look at me and said, “We could go camping in there!”

I doubled over laughing and took the dress off ASAP!

P.S. I’ve also given away the nightgown since.
