Inspired

I love blogging and I follow quite a few blogs out there-some for their content and some for
their ideas and crafting goodness. Sometimes I wish I was as good and some-
times I know I don't have the time to even try. I have some really bad
organizational skills and I just DON'T do good with deadlines!

I scold myself...quite often for not submitting my artwork to more publications or
for other online design teams but I can't keep up - I know this before I even attempt to try out.

Well tonight I got inspired by one of the bLogs I follow
I am sure you heard of her - she is quite the blogger she is.

Today she wrote about her relationship with her hubby and the connection of it all.
I felt inspired to agree with her and felt it an important topic to write about again.

while life is pretty great and you got kids - and those kids got lots to do...
life can sort of become all about them - and those "you & him" moments can get pushed back
sometimes to --- struggling to stay awake until midnight to squeeze in some time with your sweety
because the kids just finally went to sleep...sad indeed but that's life.

I think it can take a toll on some marriages but if you are one of the lucky ones...


like I am - then you take those late nights and run with them.
You make the effort - you pay for a sitter when you really can't afford one...
so that you can just have a dinner un-interrupted. You sneak a hug and a kiss in
between making dinner - you "cop a feel" when you are taking the clothes out of the dryer...
You hug during the day and kiss just because.
I know things get busy I know you get tired I know it seems pointless
sort of a tease, but to keep your relationship healthy I think it is so important
to try and squeeze these types of things in on a daily basis.


I am very lucky and I make sure to steal a kiss and a offer a quick back scratch,
it's the little things that tell him I really do love you.
It's the little things that scream out loud amidst the screams and yells of our kids...
"HEY YOU - YEAH, YOU I THINK YOU ARE SEXY AND I LOVE YOU A TON."

I am no expert but this is an important issue and I think HE is totally worth it.

Here's wishing you some serious sweet talk...tonight.

A Sew Somerset magazine was given to me this week. I just finished reading your article about your mini memory quilt. Thoughtful; good for you.

Loved this blog post, btw, too. We've been married thirty years, raised two, now have a son-in-law, in the middle of our twentieth move-- that's here to the Philippines.

I want to encourage you to keep bragging on your good husband. Do it often. Do it publicly. Do it privately. Do it in front of your kids and relatives. Do it with his parents and your dad. Send his mother flowers on your husband's birthday. Thank her for carrying your husband in her womb and giving him life, love and tender care.

Good job!

Great post! We often overlook our significant other, with the attitude that they're "there" and they're "in the trenches" right along with us. So while that may be true, it doesn't hurt to make goo-goo eyes at him or pinch his behind to let him know how HOT and SPECIAL he is. Thanks for the reminder to celebrate my Mr. Wonderful! I surely will.
