It is important that you take time to honor your wife on Mother’s Day. Whether or not you have any children, your wife is a very special woman in your life. If you do have children, it is important that you remind them to honor your wife as well.
Honoring your wife on Mother’s Day does not necessarily mean that you need to spend money on gifts or flowers (though these things are nice). Honoring your wife really has more to do with the way that you treat her on a daily basis. The words that you use when you come home from work really can convey how you honor your wife. The time that you spend with your wife being together also shows the way you feel about her.
This year for Mother’s Day, you may want to consider giving a little bit more of yourself to her and to the family. If you have a job that requires long hours you may commit to coming home at five at least one day a week. You may want to commit to a weekly date night so that you can spend time nurturing your relationship with your wife. You may decide to spend one Saturday a month as a family.
A letter is one of the most cherished gifts that you can give to your wife. As you write just express your love and thanks for the things that she does. The language does not need to be flowery; it just needs to come from the heart. Your wife will feel your love and appreciation as she reads your words.
Take time throughout the year to help her with the family and housework. Make sure that the words you use are kind. Be loving and kind to her. As you do your marriage will be strengthened and you will truly be honoring her.
