We had a GREAT discussion going today at our Book Club on how to keep a marriage alive! We all know that sometimes that you fall into this *rut* in your marriage where all your attention is focused on the kids, and the *we* part between you and your hubby is slowly fading away. But, how do we keep our marriage and love between you and your hubby alive? Well, several suggestions came up and here's a couple of tips that were worth sharing:
1. Try not to argue about things that happened more than 24 hours ago. Keep things in the present.
2. Try to do little things for each other. E.g. like putting toothpaste on your spouse's toothbrush, picking up that gallon of milk on the way home, or even helping to clean up after dinner. You will be amazed at how well the little things done are really noticed.
3. Learn to say *sorry* when you know you have done something wrong. It can always feel like a burden lifted off your shoulders.
4. Go on a date night...even try to go out once a month! This is a nice way to spend some quality time with your spouse without the kids asking you a zillion questions a day. AND if you go on a date night, try something different instead of dinner and/or movie...go indoor rock climbing, walk around Waikiki, or even take a hike during the day.
Hope any of the tips helped a bit, and if you got anymore, feel free to leave a comment to share with everyone.
