- We daily say I love you – well several times throughout the day – every morning and night<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We start the day with a hug, a kiss and a I love you.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We always ask each other how we are feeling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We ask and listen to how each others day is.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We say thank you to each other for even the small daily things.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- We try to avoid leaving an argument unfinished (it is never left until the next day).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nI’m sure there’s many more but I asked some other bloggers for ideas on what ways they show someone you care without spending a lot of money:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jenny from MummyMishaps –\u00a0Do some IOU or promises cards could be romantic ones, eg picnic for 2, massage, or nice gestures eg . get the kids up one Sunday so you can have a lie in or do the vacuuming etc etc<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jayne from Mums the Word – points over to the matter in the research which will also improve a woman’s health and fight depression<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Laura from Tired Mummy of Two –\u00a0Hide little love notes around the house, in their coat pocket, lunch box etc<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rebecca from Here Come the Girls –\u00a0\u00a0I think basic things are more important than grand gestures, like asking how they are and actually listening, not snapping at them about trivial things, looking after then when they’re poorly, not slagging them off to mutual friends all the time. General not taking them for granted I suppose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Penny from Being Mrs C says –\u00a0\u00a0I once wrote a book of promises – things like “I will do the washing up five times when it’s not my turn” “I will do the bins when it’s not my turn” Went down very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lucy from Wonderthift \u00a0suggests\u00a0Building a campfire and toast marshmallows and talk about your life dreams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lizzie – from Me and My Shadow has some Romantic Energy Saving tips ,\u00a0made a Just Because I love You Book, and a Jigsaw puzzle photo keyring.<\/p>\n\n\n

Helen from The Crazy Kitchen \u00a0–\u00a0cooking a big fat steak & popping a bottle of Stella in the fridge usually does the trick here.<\/p>\n\n\n

<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nMichelle from Mummy from the Heart –\u00a0Book a babysitter and then send him an email at work to tell him we are going out that night. Get all dressed up and greet him with a kiss when he returns with kids all ready in PJs and have a nice meal out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
