My husband is often grumpy and slow to get up in the morning. Yesterday I thought of a way to motivate him to get out of bed. I had noticed that the woodpeckers were almost out of suet, so when I went upstairs to wake him, I told him that the woodpeckers were fighting over the last little morsel of food. He came downstairs shortly and said, “I’m only up because I wanted to feed the birds.” I knew it. I could tell that he was really enjoying his new winter hobby. It looks like I’ve learned a few things about him over the years, including how to motivate him from time to time.
