Husband Appreciation Day
Now, I must admit that I am not the best at letting my husband know how much I appreciate everything that he does. He is a wonderful man, a great friend, a good listening post, a terrific father, handyman excellente and very supportive of all of the things that I am involved with.
Like many people, I spend more time thinking about what could be different, what hasn’t been done and what I wish he would do, then letting him know what I am thankful for. So this being the day and as seeing we are off next week on an long overdue vacation: Honey, you are most certainly appreciated – now, can you get out your clothes so that I can pack up these bags!
Beverly’s Hot Tips For Celebrating Husband Appreciation Day
- Take a moment and think about how life would be terribly different without this person in your life
- Let them know a couple of the little things that they do that make you smile
- Give a hug for no reason
- Use funny Post-It Notes and stick them in their car, their briefcase or lunch bag
- Send a cheerful email to them at work (not one that reminds them to pick up a few groceries on their way home)
It’s All About The Perspective On Life
Being able to appreciate others benefits not only our relationship but also our own mood and perspective on life. Look for the things that are going right and they will start to over-shadow those things that may not be just as we would like them to be. Rose coloured glasses are really wonderful.
Smile, Laugh Large and Love!
