Sometime I feel like I want to punch my husband in the face.

Sometime I feel like I want to punch my husband in the face. I know that sounds horrible. Here’s an example. He’s doing things on the balcony and I’m inside with our one and three year old. I come over to tell him something that the girls are doing (like praising them) and then the baby cries (he usually assumes the worst like our oldest intentionally hurt her which doesn’t happen). So our baby cries and all he says is “why aren’t you watching them!?” Totally ignores the awesome thing I came to tell him and assumes that because the baby cries that I’m not taking care of them. I was so upset (but didn’t show it). As soon as she cried I responded to her cry as I always do (as he was questioning my parenting). She was not harmed, just upset that our oldest was keeping the playhouse windows closed and the baby couldn’t open them. Anyway. I felt so angry/annoyed as if I wasn’t “watching” them. And also annoyed because I do way more than just “watch” them. Anyway. Just a rant I guess. I would never punch my husband. It’s just that these little remarks are getting annoying.

Update: whenever I explain why his comments are hurtful or not helpful he always has some defense that makes it my fault for “taking it a certain way”. And then I feel worse than I did before. So I often don’t say anything anymore. When I do, it’s hot water.
