it's a tad bit embarrassing, but here you go:

I've always had horrid morning breath. It's something I've accepted about myself long ago. I know, you're thinking that everyone has bad morning breath, right? Well, mine's above (below?) average. Here's proof:

This morning after the kids left for school, Josh and I were cuddling together on the couch. I'd managed to shower and fix my hair before I got them out the door (yay me!) but I had yet to brush my teeth. After a few moments of snuggling, Josh said to me, "Something smells like puke."

I replied, "Oh yeah, that's my breath. I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

He quickly said, "Well, go brush them!"

I was kind of dozing a bit, and I didn't feel the need to brush at that exact moment so I said "I will in a minute."

He sat there quietly for a second or two and then said more to himself than to me, "I wish I didn't have a nose."

Talk about a less-than-subtle hint!!

I know!! Of course, he says sweet things today. Today when we were at the store he helped me pick out which shirt I should buy. When I tried on this peachish tunic he said "Oh Mom, you look like an angel!" :)

*ROFL* Please, please, please can I borrow Josh and have him sit with Mike? OMGosh! Mike needs some serious help with the breathe and it's all the time - toothes brushed or not! When he went to his conference I said, "Honey, this is a professional event, I think it would be good for you to buy a pack of Dentene to carry with you so you can freshen up your breathe as you mingle." How do you tell your beloved husband that his breathe smells like butt?

Say "Honey, I love you, but your breath smells like butt."

I know this because my hubby tells me this all the time. Then I reply with, "I know! But I can't afford to have $10,000 worth of dental work done right now!"

*ROFL* I know that part of the problem is one of the teeth that he has got to get worked on.

Josh is so shy, he'd never peep a word in front of Mike. I wish he could help but there you have it. It's nice that you look out for Mike and suggested the Dentene. I'm surprised by how many responses I got to this post commenting on their spouses, or their own, stinky breath. Maybe my morning breath isn't so bad after all? Yeah, right...

lol!

I have to confess that I've only ever properly kissed my husband a handful of times, in the first few weeks we were going out, because his breath is so...potent.

I still love him:)

Potent breath. Poor you and poor him :) Do your kids comment?

[hermionesmum.livejournal.com]

They haven't yet:)

LOL! That is pretty adorable, Tina. Especially since he followed it up with the "you look like an angel!" comment. So. Sweet!
