Ask your husband how the holiday season is going for him.  Does he need help with anything?  Is there something that he wants to do?  Is he dealing with any tough feelings (holidays tend to bring out emotional difficulties – perhaps this is the first holiday season after the death of a family member or friend, maybe he’s got bad holiday memories or he’s just stressed at work)?  Touch bases with him and see if there is anything you can do to make the holidays easier for him.

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.  William James
