Raising a family can be challenging and stressful at times. However, the common goals and emotional, financial, and physical investments made can be a common bond between husband and wife. One that compliments their marriage relationship.Of A lot of women avoid wearing nice clothes when they getpregnant because they believe that they look fat or ugly. You know that theresnothing more beautiful than a pregnant woman glowing and smiling, so youshouldnt hide your body during p
It's Valentine's Day. This day focused on expressions of love canbe wonderful. Unexpected flowers arrive. Gold embossed boxes ofdelicious chocolates are given. Cute stuffed animals proclaiminglove are exchanged. Great start! A good beginning. The importantquestion, though, is: "Do you demonstrate your love every otherday?" Unless you do, Valentine's Day is just another 'HallmarkHoliday'.In the U.S. and Canada, I've noticed an interesting phenomenon. Idid not have to look very far or very hard, either. Maybe you'venoticed it where you are.It's simple. Folks seem to treat the people they interact withoutside the home a little better than they often treat the folksthey say they love the most at home. Isn't this curious?People will say or do things at home that they would not do inpublic. They leave their manners outside their doors. They forgetthat 'please' and 'thank you', used freely, make life muchsimpler. Recently I was giving a parenting workshop at a college.There were fifteen couples in the room and I asked them what theythought were the greatest lessons they were teaching theirchildren. Many good answers came forth. Then, I told them thatwith every look, word and action, they were teaching theirchildren how to treat a partner. Oooh! There were some painedexpressions in that room.You know how much simpler it is so say "I love you" than to act"I love you". What could ever be the reason for not using simplemanners with your family? Why would you give up saying, 'Thankyou' when the simplest things are done for you? Are you notthankful? Do you simply expect that you should be considered,taken care of, or done for? That's the beginning of the end oflove...and, maybe, the relationship as well.No matter how many times a person says they love you, believetheir behaviour. Behaviour over time tells the truth. If someonewhispers, 'I love you', it is simply pleasant noise unless theirbehaviour screams the same message daily!Make this Valentine's Day the renewal of your love and let itcome with a secret unspoken promise: Every day, my loved oneswill feel loved by my words and actions.Happy Valentine's Day!
