Balance

To balance the List of Cruelties:

I love it when you

• come up behind me and hug me while acting all silly like you're actually trying to get something from the kitchen cabinet
• say thank you for taking care of DS
• call me sweetheart or honey
• admit that you're struggling with effective communication and will sometimes fail
• Laugh at our kid
• Crack a joke about yourself and the difficulties you're having
• hoover down the dinner I made
