The other day my husband came up with a good idea and I realized that I let it go by without much comment. Later I realized that I missed the opportunity to tell him what a great idea it was (as well as missing out on a bit of fun). It would have been a nice way to validate him and let him know how much I value him and his ideas.
Let's learn from my mistakes. Take notice of the ideas that your husband voices. Take with is workable and have fun with it. Let him know how much you value him.
