Day 2 - Love is Kind

Be Kind to one another, tender-hearted, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also has forgiven you.
Ephesians 4:32

Today's Dare:
In addition to saying nothing negative to your spouse again today, do at least one unexpected gesture as an act of kindness.

Right away this one is slightly difficult for me. I feel like I'm the one doing all the giving in our household. I take on most of the responsibility for the house and the kids as well as work full time. I kind of feel like he needs to just take care of himself because I can't give much more. Because of this I think he feels like I don't have enough time for him. I will have to think about this throughout the day today to decide what unexpected kindness I can show Pat that will be something out of the ordinary.

How it turned out:
As usual, we didn't get a chance to see each other much today...literally about 30 minutes. You see, I work all day and he works in the evening. I did talk to him a few times on the phone and I was mindful about what I said to him. I think I did say something at the end of the day that he took the wrong way and I was tired and I didn't correct it. So, I may have failed this dare. I still have 38 more days though...
