My husband; the insult/compliment giver.

If there is one thing Jimmy is known for, it is his wit. To most, he is quite shy, but at home, he is a completely different person. He often makes up his own lyrics to songs on the radio, makes up new words to describe things that are indescribable and delivers one-liners that make me want to pee my pants.

Unfortunately for me, his sweet nature coupled with his wittiness has spilled over into his compliment-giving.

Just the other day, we began talking about how smart Harper is. (What parent doesn't think their child is a genius?)

In a rare moment, he paid me a sweet compliment.

Jimmy: "Babe, he gets it from you. You're smart. You're a genius."

Me: (Astounded) "Aw, thanks. You really mean that?"

Jimmy: "Yes. You are a genius of your household chores."

Me: (Blank stare)

End scene.
