His and Hers: No spoilers
His and Hers is a weekly discussion of a question or topic relating to marriage. On Friday, my wife and I each write our thoughts on the week's topic. I invite others to do the same with their spouses as an exercise in celebrating marriage. This week's question is:
What is the fifth sentence on the 23d page of the book
you're currently reading?
(Note: I feel like we've done this question before, but I'm too lazy to check.

Mrs. Happy's response
"I could tell from the look of her—her flushed cheeks, her slow smile, and the way she tied the apron with her strong hands—that she liked us, liked our house, and that she would be happy here." —The Silent Boy, by Lois Lowry
