One of the things that I have generally worked toward is being calm regardless of the circumstances. I pray for that kind of calm and I routinely keep an eye on my behavior, voice, etc. Now, please understand, that I'm not perfect. It's just a goal of mine to be calm. I think it's a good gift to give to your husband, kids, friends, etc.
So as a suggestion, I encourage y'all to watch how you act and speak and consider working at being calm. Don't expect perfection, just make it a general goal, learn from your mistakes, and work toward being more calm.
