Welcoming Him Home

When your husband walks through the door after a long day, give him a moment to unwind. As eager as you may be to share the details of your day, it’s wise to wait. Allow him time to settle, change clothes, and decompress. This small act of consideration shows your respect for his role and his need for transition between work and home. He does want to hear about your day—just not the moment he steps in. Save the conversation for the dinner table when you both can engage more meaningfully. A peaceful welcome sets the tone for the evening and honors his leadership with kindness and thoughtfulness.
