I thought this was a very cute piece of writing. I found it very amusing, and I enjoyed reading it.
Areas of Improvement
I cannot quite put my finger on it, but something about the dialog between the two characters seems a little flat at times. An example of this would be:
Oh God, no, where were they?
In my mind, I see the husband as being very irritated, or upset that once again his wife is right. That is not the impression I get when I read the words.
One suggestion I have to insert the emotion that I feel is lacking, is to change the punctuation up a bit. For example:
Oh God! No! Where were they? or
Oh. God. No. Where were they?
Of course, this only my opinion, and you may not agree.
Minor Corrections
I cannot identify any glaring errors that need your attention, however, you might want to reread it. I think if you inserted a few commas - in the proper places - the overall flow of this piece would drastically improve.
What I Like Most
My favorite part was when he discovered that his keys were missing. It sounds just like something my dad would have done.
