Love in a Lunch Box

“That turkey wrap was a nice surprise at lunch today,” he says as he puts the lunchbox on the counter, just home from work.

Making my husband’s lunch is a habit I started when we were newlyweds. Back then I would write a little something on his napkin so he knew I was thinking about him. A cute code message or a simple I love you. Like lots of other things, that habit wasn’t so consistent once children came along. Little growling tummies and empty juice cups took precedence.

Then one day it hit me. Not only was it was the sheer cost of lunches out, I realized something else. This husband and I – we were a family before children came along. I should make taking care of him a priority.

Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.
