Hi,
Simple sentence check up.

It's not wrong, but the meaning of 'for you and your husband' is rather unclear. Can you say it another way?

I don't know how to say it another way.
It'd be nice if you could give me some examples.

OK, but first try to tell me the situation where you would want to say this.

Hi,
No.
But without any context, the meaning was unclear.
