Default Re: First time poster... need advice on 'The Little Things You Do'...

Here's some specific things my husband has done for me...
puts air in my tires or oil in my car if he thinks it needs it
cleans up the kids' mess in the kitchen before I come down in the morning
makes me breakfast every saturday because he knows I cook all week
one week, he left me a card somewhere in the house every day
asks about and shows interest in my work projects
gives me a big hug and kiss before he leaves for work and as soon as he walks in the door
emails/texts/calls during the day
flowers
massages
compliments me on how I look, house decorating projects I've done, meals I've cooked (and helps with the dishes) & in general just tells me he appreciates what I do
he's very affectionate and always makes me feel like he's happy and proud to be with me
When something pops into your head...like 'wow, my wife looks good today...or good in that color' use the opportunity to say it out loud...sincerity will go miles.
Good luck
