One of the kindest gifts that you can give to your spouse (or anyone) is the gift of “calm.”

Right after church yesterday, the child of a friend ran into the edge of a table. It was potentially pretty serious, but everyone stayed very calm. Siblings were handed off and the child was rushed to a nearby urgent care facility. I was so touched by everyone’s ability to stay calm and think practically. (The little one ended up with three stitches and is back to her rascally self.)

I know sometimes you just need to have a good cry and, really, I’m not saying that anyone should deny the reality of a difficult situation.

My point is that being calm is a behavior that we can exercise and grow in and offer as a lovely gift to our husbands.
