Explanation: that seat is right outside the laundry room door and nearly always has at least one (usually many - ha!) article of clothing on it, which really seems to bug poor Mr. Incredible. :) I just thought of one coupon I would definitely include:

Oh, and MIn, your last sentence had me literally laughing out loud. :) Mr. Incredible came in to see why I was laughing, but I'm not so sure he caught the full humor of the joke. :) I always loved this idea, and also I like Leslie’s husband idea.

I can't remember know how many different ones he thought of, maybe 30 and repeated it 12 times. And some things he put in extra if it was something I really like. Oh, he repeated them!

Now you have me thinking. You still have the vase or the strips of paper? :)

Rather than creating a book, he printed 365 different "treats" for me to choose from...one for every day of the year...for him to do for me whenever I wanted. Some of his ideas are simple, but sweet, like "sing you a song" and "let you pick the movie" and "clean the kitchen." He put all of these little strips of paper in a small glass vase which I still have. My husband made something like this for me one year.
