Generally speaking, you can’t help morning breath or moments of being rather rumpled because of life (it’s humanly impossible to look and smell pretty 24/7).  That said, don’t let the familiarity that comes with years of marriage cause you to slide in your effort to be fresh and pretty for your husband.

I’m not suggesting the impossible. I remember those baby days when I struggled to get a shower by the end of the day or days when I hit the floor running because of work demands.  Life does happen and hubbies need to understand the pull of responsibilities.  I’m just encouraging a certain amount of self care so that we are healthy and so that we can be a pleasing partner to our spouse.

… the fragrance of your breath [is] like apples, and your mouth like the best wine! Song of Songs 7:8b-9  NAS
