My daughter loaded the kids in the car and drove to the local donut shop. She ordered her husbands favorite coffee and then went to where he was working and delivered it. SURPRISE!!
This is good. It is a good example to the children, AND it was a pleasant affirmation of the family's love towards him
Life tends to just tumble on and on.... moments into hours and hours into days and then the month is past.
Today grab some time.....Do something spontaneous. Make your spouse feel appreciated. Put a love note in his lunch...make his favorite dinner or dessert. Have the kids make cards. Fix a treat for when he comes home from work..you get the idea ~ DO SOMETHING!
When the children were small we made a large paper doll and taped it on the wall. We wrote on the hands, feet, etc etc
Ex: we love how dad holds us, we like when dad takes us fishing, We love when dad wrestles with us, We love the way dad sings.
We had this hung up for when my husband came home from work...The kids joined in on making the night special and it was wonderful.
Spread the love. If you don't have a spouse....pick someone else...one of the children, a neighbor, a grandparent etc..So many never hear a word of thanks
Appreciation is POWERFUL and brings about wonderful results!
And it does not cost anything!
Blessings!
