14 Day Love Challenge- Day 1

Amy Freeman (did you all read Kayleigh's story?? it is her momma) has a women's marriage ministry blog. Maybe some of you have even saw it or visit it.... anyway. She is doing a 14 Day Love Challenge in the days leading up to Valentines Day.

Ryan and I have a great relationship. I am so thankful for the man he is and what that means for our little family. BUT I do recognize that I fail a lot of the time at showing him just how much I love and appreciate him. I am jumping on board this 14 day challenge. Lately, I've especially been thinking about how I need to show him more just how much I love and appreciate him b/c he is doing so much around here! He has been doing a lot of the cooking and giving B baths and other stuff that are really "my" duties... He has been MAKING me take it easy. By going to Walmart, running errands, and basically doing all he can to make this pregnancy easier on me. He worries about me... He worries about C... and he loves us and wants us to both be healthy. That, my friends, is love.

Ryan and I-- September 2001!

I will post the challenge on here daily just in case ya'll want to follow along, w/out having to go to another blog, but if you do want to check on Amy's blog go for it! They have a pretty big story and lots of good ideas... After Valentines Day she is starting The Love Dare.






Lesson #1 - Tonight or tomorrow when your spouse comes home, greet them at the door. Don't yell from another room. Physically meet them at the door. Let them know that you missed them today. (even if you didn't) I have started doing this with Adam & he absolutely loves it. Honestly, so do I. I feel much more special when I feel that everyone is happy to see me. If this is not possible to do it this way due to your schedules, then be sure to make him feel like you missed him & you are happy to see him when you are face to face.

Let me know if you are following along (only if you want-- hopefully we can all be encouraging to one another).
