Showing your husband that you love him isn’t hard. However, the days go by and time gets away from you. When the kids are little, there is so much focus on them. Let’s face it, they’re pretty needy little people. Even though you don’t go all out with the crazy 80’s style grand-gesture (please picture yourself with a boom box above your head standing outside), you never forget how much you love your husband. There are very simple ways you can show your husband love, it’s just a matter of implementing them. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Make a special dinner:
For most guys, the saying “the way to his heart is through his stomach” is very true. Make a simple, but special dinner for your husband 1-2 times a month. He will appreciate it more than you know. If your husband loves food, this is a no-brainer for showing him that you love him.
Write a note:
You don’t need to be a fancy writer to show your husband how much you love him. Writing a simple note for him will speak volumes of how much you love him. You can simply write “I love you” and put it in his work pants or just leave it on the bathroom counter for him to find.
When Tom and I were dating, I would pick up random cards at the store and leave them for him before I left. Honestly, it’s been years since I left him a random card. This is something I am definitely starting again!
Surprise him at work:
Of course, not every wife will be able to do this because of children at home and schedule conflicts, but this is a fun way to show him you love him. Swing by his favorite restaurant and bring food to him at work. Try to surprise him, if you can, because this will make it even more special.
If you can’t make it in person, have lunch delivered to him!
Keep a love journal:
It’s super easy to point out when your husband does something wrong. However, it takes a little effort to point out what he’s doing right.
Start a love journal and every time your husband does something you love, put it in the journal. Let him have full access to it. This will build his confidence and he can go to the love journal anytime he wants.
Show your husband appreciation:
Love comes in many forms, but the simplest form is through appreciation. Let your husband know that you appreciate how hard he works and everything he does for you. Husbands love knowing their wives adore and appreciate them.
Make him his own special cup of coffee:
One of my favorite ways to show my husband that I love him is to make him his own special cup of coffee. There’s just something about it being one less thing he needs to do in the morning. Coffee speaks volumes to my husband, especially when I make it the way he loves it.
I picked up everything he needs for his morning coffee at ShopRite: Folgers K-Cups, International Delight creamer, and Truvia Natural Sweetener. Since he’s the only coffee drinker, we do K-Cups. His coffee is always freshly brewed and there’s not a half-pot sitting around to be thrown out.
Right now at ShopRite, when you buy 2 participating coffee products and 1 participating creamer, you get a free box of Truvia Natural Sweetener 40ct! *now thru 3/12, while supplies last
After 9 years together, I know his morning coffee routine and exactly how to make his coffee: a little cream and two sweeteners.
As you can see, showing you husband you love him is quite simple. What ways do you love to show your husband that you love him? I’d love to hear your ideas!
