National Spouse's Day is here! It's one of those fun, unexpected holidays that gives you a sweet excuse to shower your love with more love! Whether you've got kids and haven't had a lot any time for romance, or you've both been working hard and gotten into the wake, work, eat, sleep, repeat routine, everyone could use some extra love from their spouse.
Here are 5 easy things you can do on National Spouse's Day to let your sweetie know you love them!
1. Love Notes An oldie but a goodie! This is one of the simplest, easiest ways for you to leave a special little reminder to your spouse about things you love about them. You can do something a little more funky and leave notes in "secret" places you know they'll find on their own, or leave them a special note on their nightstand pouring your heart out. One thing that I always do is leave my man a couple of notes that he'll get to read during the day: one by his sink in the bathroom telling him how much I love waking up next to him, one in the car telling him not to speed and to also remember how grateful I am he works so hard, and another he can find on the door when he comes home that lets him know how excited *ahem* I am for him to be home. Whatever notes you leave, it's always a special way to let your spouse read the things that make you love them.
2. Special Night In Plan a great date night in. Make a special dinner, set the table with some candles and your best dishes, and put on some music to transform your home into a different place. Make sure you pay attention to each other! Don't let your phones get in the way of you spending a meal together catching up. A great way to make this more special would be to have a list of questions for each other to answer that will make the discussions a little more meaningful. You could talk about things you want to do this year together, things you're worried about at home or at work, what are the things that you love about each other and things you'd love to do daily/weekly/monthly to make sure your relationship isn't taking a back seat. End the meal with your babe's sweet treat, and cuddle up together under a soft blanket to watch a favorite movie. 
5. Spruce Things Up Everybody loves a day when they can get pampered, even the guys in our life. Schedule a massage, mani/pedi, or even just a hair cut for your spouse to let them know you want them to have some time to themselves to relax because of how hard they work. Not interested in spending money to get pampered? Leave them a couple of Pamper Coupons that they can cash in whenever they want. Cheesy? Yes. Effective? Also, yes. Your sweetie will love handing you a coupon for a 5-minute back rub when they've had a long day, and it gives the two of you a chance to spend some time alone taking care of each other.Marriage is not a picnic, but when we work hard to cherish and appreciate our spouse, we strengthen the most important relationship in our homes. National Spouse's Day is a great way to give your relationship a boost to share more love, fun, and romance while you celebrate your spouse!
