February is for Sharing the Love!

I love the month of February! February was when I met my prince charming and also the month I married him. It was the month that my life changed forever! Our first real date was Valentine's Day and we married on Valentine's Day 3 years later.  We have been married for 8 years and have a great relationship.  One thing I have always loved about our relationship is receiving and giving little surprises or unexpected gestures.  They are nice little reminders that show we are thinking of each other.  Plus, it's fun and makes you feel special.

With our anniversary coming up I wanted to do something a little different.  So I counted back 30 days from February 14th and started my first of 30 texts to my husband called - 30 Reasons Why I Love You!  Each day I send him a new text with a different reason.  After the 2nd day he caught on to what I was doing and decided to start texting me the 30 reasons why he loves me.  I must say, it has been a lot of fun sending the texts back and forth each day.  It also makes us really think about the reasons we do love each other.  Some of the reasons have been sweet compliments, some romantic and sexy, and some very funny!  Some times in relationships we take each other for granite and need to be reminded why we fell in love in the beginning.

Get Egg-cited over each other again!


There are 14 days left until Valentine's Day.  You should start texting your spouse the - 14 Reason Why I Love You!  Dig in the past and start with one of the reasons you first fell in love.  In your first text, type...you will have to wait until tomorrow to read the 13th reason I love you.  Maybe he will catch on to and start texting you back.  Share your love with each other, even when your are not physically together!

Have fun!

  7. That is a fabulous idea - if your hubby texts - which mine doesn't usually. If one of the kids text him, he'll call them back... So, maybe I'll do 14 days of cards or something ? I have to think about this :)

    Have a fabulous day!

  11. Love this idea! Now is a good of a time to start as ever with Valentine's Day coming up. The little things like that really do matter, and I'm as guilty as anyone as neglecting them, especially since becoming a Mom. Let us know how it goes!
