But it's still there, a noxious weed that we need to pull every time it pokes its head above the ground.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13230537202427640540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4095822388315899381.post-41383758815327185972014-05-15T08:25:28.492-07:002014-05-15T08:25:28.492-07:00Thanks for calling it what it is, Andrew—disloyal....Thanks for calling it what it is, Andrew—disloyal. I've done it. Every time with a niggling of conviction, knowing it's wrong. Thanks for speaking truth and reminding me it's much more important to hold my tongue and honor my husband than to dishonor him in the eyes of others.

I see this happening all the time, and when I dip into it myself--talking negatively about my husband--I know even as I do it, that it's being disloyal to him, and it feels ugly. Thanks for calling us out on this.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.com
