Back a step to Day 3 then on to today Day 4

Like I said this morning Ash beet me to the punch on Day 3 so let’s recap.

Whatever you put your time, energy, and money into will become more important to you. It's hard to care for something you are not investing in. Along with restraining from negative comments, buy your spouse something that says, "I was thinking of you today."

Today is actually day 4 and I had to back track and do day 3 today. While Ash was getting more ink in Woodridge I took the kids and went shoppin! we just went to the NEX, looked around a bit and got her a "Navy" shirt that she had been saying for months she wanted to get "Just didn’t feel like spending so much money on it at that time" so I said the heck with it and got her one for the Gym, and another one just because. I also picked her up a little coffee cup and some chocolates. For me it’s not the money any more if I can afford it and it will bring a smile to her or our children’s face that is the best price in the world!

Day 4
11 Feb 2010
"How precious also are your thoughts to me....? How vast is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand."- Psalm 139:17-18
Today’s dare came pretty natural to me (now) but if you would have asked me to do this 7 months ago it would have been difficult for me.
Contact your spouse sometime during the business of the day. Have no agenda other than asking how he or she is doing and if there is anything you could do for them.
Like I said now this is a standard for me, I would just send her a text asking how her day is or in person asking if there is anything I can do. It makes her feel better even the smallest things and I can see that in her eyes, face and just body language, in the same breath it makes me feel good knowing that I am making her happy!
