REAL Marriage

Have you seen those lists of “101 ways to…”?  Now is the time to give your spouse the REAL Love Note that is “101 reasons I love you” or “101 things I like about you.”  Yes, this one will take a little more time and be bigger than normal.  Writing this note is good for both of you.  You, as the writer, need to be reminded of all of these things so that you can keep joy, love, and thankfulness in your marriage.  Your spouse will enjoy seeing these things and will definitely keep this note to read again and again.

REAL Love Notes are deposits in the love bank.

Many, if not most, of your dates should be relatively easy to plan and carry out.  Tomorrow is Independence Day!  Take your spouse to see your local fireworks.  As you celebrate our country’s independence spend some time talking about how the two of you like being together.

A REAL date a week builds a REAL marriage.
