Step 1-
My parents dated at 17. Roosevelt was President as they grew up. Dad served in the USAF in Okinawa. They married when the marriage license cost one dollar. They worked, raised 4 kids...all married with kids of their own... and traveled many parts of the globe on vacations. Both turned 78 this year and are in failing health. I dedicate this "how to" to my Dad, the sweetest Husband ever. He likes to say that $1 to marry my Mom is the best dollar he ever spent!
Step2-
Pres. Roosevelt Little things mean a lot. Pump gas in her car; check her tire pressure; carry the grocery bags in for her. Get the repairman out to the house promptly if the washing machine breaks, the roof leaks or the sliding door goes off the track. Remember her favorite color and buy her flowers, a scarf, or gloves in that color.
Step3-
right on!! Compliments. Praise each meal she cooks for you. Help with the dishes & clean-up even if you had to eat a burned dinner. Tell your wife she looks nice, hold her hand, put your arm around her, peck her cheek, say "I love you" often. Ask her to dance. Give your wife the fanciest Mother's Day card you can find at the card shop.
Step4-
turtles candy Make occasions special. Buy her a box of her favorite gourmet chocolates on her birthday. Split a rootbeer float on New Year's Eve, if you don't drink. Yes, the big events matter but don't forget the smaller events. Celebrate little milestones such as your first date. My folks have a sandwich lunch together every year on the annivesary of their first date, which was a lunch date. Awwwwwww!! How sweet!!! Think of an occasion or two you and your wife can make into an annual celebration.
