While looking through some older files and blog posts I came accross this older post about marriage.  Since this was a Monday post and today is Monday, I thought I would repost it.

Good Monday!  It is time we begin our work week and time to reflect on our marriages.  I know, you know (or you need to know) that Marriage Matters.  Today is a simple list of five things that you can do today that are mostly free (one of them may cost $1.00  or so) to communicate to your husband or wife their importance to you.

1. At some point today, take a moment to send an email, text message, Facebook message, or voice-mail to your husband or wife just to say, “I love you.”

2. On your way to home today, stop by a convenience store or florist (one flower is enough for this exercise) and pick-out a small surprise for your spouse on the way home.
3. Make an embrace and a kiss the FIRST thing you do when you see each other this evening.
4. Do something unexpected (do a chore that they usually do – laundry, dishes, garbage, etc.)
5. Hold hands while taking an evening walk together.

Have a great marriage.
