Dear husbands of the world …

Want to know the secret to a pregnant woman’s heart? And it doesn’t even involve taking her out to a restaurant or bringing home tea biscuits, Snickers bars, and potato chips from the grocery store?

OK, I’ll tell you …

It’s catering to her furniture re-arranging whims!

On Wednesday night, Darling Husband willingly rearranged our entire basement family room/playroom according to my NESTING OVERLOAD hormones totally rational wishes.

I swear to God, it was the best night EVER!

Along with moving the entire enterainment unit/couch around, he also did some re-wiring of speaker-y things (OK, that was more for his enjoyment), and hooked up the CD player. So after the toddler was in bed, we moved furniture/discussed furniture placement while jamming to old-school favourites.

Hell, I DANCED around the basement with my big ol’ pregnant stomach — that’s how happy I was.

So husbands? Take a cue from my very Darling one. When your wife is a pyscho nesting preggo, indulge her need to rearrange furniture and neaten up rooms. It is the most unbelievable thing you can do for her, and it will make her very happy.

xoxo

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m a writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 12-year-old son and a 10-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep them from taking over my life. Creating things helps.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time with her writing. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
