Be the type of wife who kisses her husband in the kitchen. Who holds hands while walking through the mall. The kind of wife who cuddles on the couch or plays footsie's while watching a movie. Touch your husband in a warm and loving manner. A caress on his arm, a hug around his neck, a silly pat on his butt. Grab his face, look him in the eyes and kiss him.
And do this all in front of your children.
Why?
Because children will become what they see. If they witness how very much their parents love each other, they will one day show this affection to their own spouses. They will model your behavior and will come to understand what a healthy and normal, loving marriage looks like.
Our son sees my husband and I kissing all the time. Seriously- All. The. Time.
Never underestimate the importance of giving your spouse your love and affection. By doing this you are not only showing your husband how much you love him, you are also showing your children what it means to show love. Be generous and affectionate with your feelings and it will be returned to you twofold.
