We have two little notebook/journals one for me and one for him, and whenever we feel inspired we write each other little love or thanks notes. There's usually been once a week or so. It's been really nice! It's also helped me realign my way of thinking and look for more things that I love about him or appreciate him doing.Savannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106100619960288158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314654863949920054.post-53060805338493237352009-11-12T11:24:18.299-08:002009-11-12T11:24:18.299-08:00Oh Amanda, that just made me cry. I love the idea ...Oh Amanda, that just made me cry. I love the idea of having that record for your children. They will crave that. When my Mom passed away last year, I wanted so badly to know of the love my parents had for eachother. Especially since my Dad's hasty remarriage pretty much marred any of the few sweet memories we had of their intimacy, and his store-bought Valentine's day cards with nary a written message inside did nothing but confirm our suspicions (even though my Mom kept every single one of them, which at least said something of her feelings for him). This is precisely why I decided to start my blog. I wanted my children to know the little things I did for them that showed each day my love for them, but most importantly, I wanted them to know the little things I did for their Dad (my dear husband) too. Children need that. But I've noticed that for months now, my blog has said very little of loving my husband. Granted, things have been rough financially, which unfortunately mixes into the love life, but it shouldn't stop me. So your post really hit home. Thank you for the little push. You and Mike are so cute.Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12038244067193025155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314654863949920054.post-18704252323426663172009-11-12T09:22:53.695-08:002009-11-12T09:22:53.695-08:00What a great idea!

We also have one for each of our kids that we write in for their birthdays and other special occasions. <br />Also...we have a love note written to each other that we keep in the place where it was hidden in the first place. It is fun to find it again and remember how we felt 7 years ago :)<br />Great idea...I definitely need to remember to actually use these ideas!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05685356518695678002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314654863949920054.post-85774964463517006612009-11-12T07:22:16.944-08:002009-11-12T07:22:16.944-08:00One time for our anniversary Matt left little tiny...One time for our anniversary Matt left little tiny post it notes around the entire house that said "I love you" on them. They were everywhere. Even on a can of beans in the pantry. I found them for weeks. It meant so much to me. I still remember finding one in my wallet about 2 months after our anniversary. It meant a lot more than a vase of flowers ever could. :)Nataliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579386461697607378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3314654863949920054.post-75524171921042670352009-11-12T07:12:29.512-08:002009-11-12T07:12:29.512-08:00Amanda, SUCH a romantic idea...the blog devoted to...Amanda, SUCH a romantic idea...the blog devoted to your feelings for each other. I too love "love notes" and have "trained" my husband to frequent leaving them here and there for me :) He is far better at it than I am now (sad but true).<br />Thank you for sharing this with us...you've inspired me today--my husband has already left for work (he left me a note this morning that made me giggle like a teenage girl)...but I think an email is in order! It may even be a little sexy! ;) haha.Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01492629476225188410noreply@blogger.com
