Upon an email request that I received, I’m going to begin a [hopefully] weekly series on the things we can do to show our husbands how much we appreciate the hard work they do. I hope, through this series, you will be encouraged to honor your hubby - showing just how much you love him.
Daniel’s love language is affection and words of affirmation. Mine is the total opposite of his, so I have to be extremely deliberate to show my affections, through words and actions. Do you know what your husband’s love language(s) is? If not, I highly recommend this book to find out.
Every night, regardless of the time, my husband scratches my back. This is something I love [just about] more than anything, but he doesn’t like to have his back scratched; it “tickles”. However he does like to have his back and feet rubbed, therefore I am going to make it a priority to rub his back and rub his feet a few times every week. I’m choosing to do this only a few times per week because hubby, himself, has told me that he appreciates something much more when it doesn’t happen all the time; every day.
This will be a small token of my gratitude toward him for all hard work he does to take care of his family. Not to mention, it will give him some time to really relax after a hard day.
How about you? What creative ideas do you have to show that man of yours, you love him? Leave a comment and share with us - we’d love to hear! (please remember to keep these suggestions appropriate, never know whose reading)
