In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it can sometimes be difficult to find the right opportunity to show your spouse how much you love and care about him or her. If you are looking for a small but meaningful way to convey your appreciation, read on for a few helpful ideas.
Have His or Her Car Cleaned
Cars can accumulate grime and crumbs quickly, especially if you have small children, commute daily or both. Next time your spouse is at an appointment, out of town or otherwise distracted from the daily grind, take his or her car to a detailer for a spotless car cleaning. Your spouse will be thrilled to drive a car that feels just like new!
Get a Surprise Gift
You may not necessarily want to go overboard and blow your previously agreed-upon budget on a lavish piece of jewelry or anything else excessively costly, but a small trinket goes a long way towards showing how much you care. “It’s the thought that counts” may be a cliché, but in this case, it rings true. A bouquet of flowers, a new coffee mug and a comfortable set of pajamas are all viable candidates.
Do Some Extra Chores
Another way to be a star spouse and show your husband or wife just how much he or she is appreciated is to take on some extra household duties. This could involve vacuuming every room, washing the dishes or doing a load or two of laundry. If possible, set your spouse up to relax while you tackle these tasks.
Successful, long-lasting marriages are formed on a basis of mutual respect and admiration. By doing small favors for your spouse on a regular basis, you will show him or her the depth of your love and commitment to your relationship.
