He had just returned from the local farmer markets with our children and his sanity in tact and said here.
He handed a newspaper to me. He followed it up with I wanted to buy you some flowers, but they had sold out, so I got you the paper instead.
I smiled not because he had ‘brought’ me something while he was out. It was because he had thought of me while he was out and expressed that with this gesture of one my favourite things. Being able to read the paper is a love of mine one that I get to rarely these days, and so I never buy a paper.
That gesture made my day and eventually his as I stayed on cloud nine all day.
So relationship tip: Show your spouse that they are in your thoughts even when you are apart. It doesn’t have to be a grandiose Kanya moment every single day because life doesn’t work that way just a reminder when things get busy. Simple is best. A text of hey thinking of you, their favourite chocolate bar or a phone call. Even just keeping them in the loop about your day and if you are going to be home on time. Simple stuff but so, so good.
