29 Reasons I Love My Husband

Today, I’m joining up with other wives at The Happy Wives Club to blog about  “Why I Love My Husband (the never-ending list)“.

In a world that thinks that “happy and wife are an oxymoron”, Happy Wives Club is “on a journey to prove love and marriage still go hand-in-hand, the ‘Happy Wife’ really does exist.”

My list keeps growing..

How about you?

Can you make you own list? (Husbands can write a similar list for their wives)

(Now most of us already know the things we don’t like. And the tendency is to dwell there. How about we do something intentional today? Remind yourself why you love that man that God gave you? Our marriages can do with some giddy!)

If you need some more inspiration, read this post on why the never-ending list is such a marriage-booster.

Then go ahead and share some of the things you love about your husband/wife in the Comment Section below!
