Do you know one or more people you don't think should be trusted with a gun?

34. Agreed. I am a law-abiding citizen, happily married, mother of two.

For one shining moment, I *knew* killing him was the right thing to do. Seriously, HE LET THE DOGS WAKE UP THE BABIES.

In my defense, I was on two months of non-existent sleep, and that particular night had gotten 45 minutes total in three separate sequences (20 mins, 10 mins, 15 mins). My beloved was trying to be quiet so all of us could "sleep" which was why he hadn't let the dogs out, but within five minutes of leaving the house, the dogs began barking so they could have their morning constitutional, which set off the babies, one of whom was on oxygen and a heart monitor, which began screeching, while the cat was leaping near the glass of warm water right by the computer --

Did I mention it was a rough moment? Once I got everybody/everything under control, I called and explained to him that I was going to KILL HIM IN HIS SLEEP if he *ever* did that again (he was very confused), at which point he gently told me it was time to call my mom for some relief, and I started crying. My mother promptly came over, I got two hours of blissful uninterrupted sleep, and then he gently told me I had really hurt his feelings by threatening to kill him. I apologized, and we began working on ways for me to get at least four hours of sleep a day (twins!).

But there was a moment, and I will never forget it, where I really meant it, and I wasn't worried about a jury convicting me because I *knew* they would understand his "horrible crime."

I know - right?

Looking back, I had officially entered into temporary land.

He is a good man. The twins are six now. No guns in our house!
