My husband!
And I am smiling as I type this...in anticipation!
Do you and your significant other, make a conscious effort to go on a date night every once in awhile?
This is something that we, as a couple, have worked hard to make sure don't neglect. Why? Well, my husband is always so busy at work and with school, so when he is at home with us, there is very little one on one time. By the time the kids are in bed at night, we are both wiped out and ready for bed ourselves.
So, when do we find time to communicate with each other? Talk about everything from surface stuff, like how our day is, to BIG DECISIONS that we have to make together. These date nights allow us to sit, chat and even get deep sometimes...I think it's a huge element of our marriage and keeping it healthy.
These date nights also offer me a reason to get dressed up and feeling good about myself. Being a stay at home mommy can really work negatively on your self esteem. There are days (I hate to admit) that I don't even make it out of my pajamas...let alone put on make up and a cute outfit. I look forward to fixing my hair just right, picking out an outfit that I hope will make my husband's jaw drop and going out in public "ALL PUT TOGETHER". Plus, mommy gets a break and gets to enjoy a hot meal without interruption! It's an all around "WIN"!
Can I make a suggestion to you? If you don't have a regular "DATE NIGHT", maybe you should try it out. I have a feeling that when you return home...you're going to feel more connected, more relaxed and you might even be looking forward to the next "DATE NIGHT" for you and your spouse.
Just a suggestion if you want to keep the "FIRE" alive in your marriage!
