His girl.
Doesn’t every wife want to feel especially indulged by her man from time-to-time? So much of life is a flurry of activity and responsibility, mostly related to work and bill-paying and child-rearing, but occasionally, there is a pause when I am THE QUEEN 
.
Recently my husband remarked that he’d seen on the news that the latest women’s beauty trend is bright red lipstick along with black eyeliner and bronze eyeshadow. Now you have to understand that I’ve never heard my husband, in 30 years, make a comment like that. Hmm. That’s funny, I thought. That he would listen to, notice or remember such a thing. I commented that a friend had emailed me a photo of a particular haircut and the gal in the picture did indeed have exactly that make-up on.
So we’re floating about the mall one day shortly thereafter, looking for stocking stuffers for the kids, and he says, “you want some red lipstick?” I couldn’t believe my ears. What guy asks his wife if she wants to spend money on make-up? That doesn’t happen at my house, anyway.
Well, what could I say? “Why, of course!..I mean, if you think it’s…well, sure!” We just happened to be near a specialty store for women’s beauty products so we went in and asked about red lipstick. It was just so funny to be with my hubby, looking for lipstick. I sort of felt like I was in a dream – slightly giddy, even. He’s helping me choose a color as the gal rolls stripes of each color across her hand. He points to the two that he likes and they were out of stock – can you believe it?! (He knows his stuff and he picked the two most popular colors – what a guy!) So we switched brands and he found another very similar color and said it would work. She assured me that if I didn’t like it, I could bring it back. (America, the land of many happy money-back guarantees!)
So…this is exactly what he bought for me. It wasn’t Maybelline or L’Oreal or Cover Girl. It probably cost twice as much as any of those. I was feelin’ pretty fancy, indeed. 
I’m loved.
