Another thing that I try to do is to drop whatever it is I am doing and make sure I greet my husband at the door when he comes home from work, with a kiss and hug and ask him how his day was. I also feel that husbands need to know that their wives are proud of them.Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11264104093946586484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30210790.post-46019342022155825412006-12-14T07:03:00.000-05:002006-12-14T07:03:00.000-05:00Well, it is funny that the girl (me) that had the ...Well, it is funny that the girl (me) that had the most problem with the words "I put my marriage first" honestly feels that I do most of those already. I just did not feel that it was an accurate statement. I still don't. If you wait until your kids are fed, bathed and put to bed, he is not first. That is what I meant. Anyway, I read your list thinking I would feel like the worst wife ever and I don't. The food thing is ALWAYS done here. Steve chooses more than anyone else what we eat and the boys eat that regardless of if they LOVE it. I can't think of a single thing my husband has asked of me that I have put off. We both like sex so that is not a problem either. The ticking your husband off thing is an issue and I am guilty of that. Steve and I almost never say anything but nice things about eachother infront of our children. So, I agree with you and it sounds like these are things YOU are convicted on but other things come easier. I have my issues as well that I continue to work on. Trying to work on your marriage as you parent your children is a must so again I think it comes down to the words you use to describe it. I was not comfortable saying "I do or should put my husband first" when it is impossible for me to do that with my children needing so much. My husband brought up a great point. He and I decided that if we are both comfortable giving so much to the children, isn't that giving him what he wants?SamandSawyersMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10841311596317992933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30210790.post-48662758240566113252006-12-13T20:43:00.000-05:002006-12-13T20:43:00.000-05:00These are good ways!

They always have to try what I make, but if it's something new and they don't like it after tasting, i'll give them something else. <br />I agree with #3. I learned a lot from that book on sex and men! <br />I like #6 too. It is important to complement him infront of others and in front of your kids! Good ideas! Thanks for reminding me!Charhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177878883705900027noreply@blogger.com
