Marriage Monday is Coming!

Please join us for Marriage Monday on Feb. 1, 2010.
By majority vote this month's topic is, "How to Celebrate February 14 Every Day of the Year."

February is the official month of love. Thousands of couples will be celebrating their romantic relationship with pizzazz and flourish. Bouquets of red roses, gourmet chocolates, expensive perfume, and exotic getaways never go out of style. Men do their dashing best to satisfy their wives on Feb. 14, and most women really appreciate the special attention. I certainly do.

Valentine’s Day can be a wonderful way to rev up our love and really “pop the cork.” But all of us know that a satisfying day-to-day relationship needs more of our creative energy and consistency than a once-a-year budget-busting bonanza does.


The “Us” Factor

This month, your challenge is to share how you and your husband make each and every day of your marriage special. What are your daily relationship rituals? How do you nurture the “us” factor? Tell us the big or little things that make your marriage sing like a fine-tuned violin. A few examples:

• Casual chats
• Kissing
• Private jokes
• Rehearsed phrases
• Body language
• Shared activities
• Favorite foods
• Division of chores
• Intimacy signals

You get my drift. (You certainly don’t need to cover every area listed. Just use them to prime the pump.) By sharing your ideas, you’ll motivate the precious women in our Marriage Monday community to make a few improvements.
I’m sure you agree that it’s much better for our marriages to heading toward the bedroom and not boredom on a day-to-day basis!
Who needs February 14 when every day is Valentine’s Day?
