We all want our marriages to get even better. But improvement only comes when we are intentional with our words and actions with our spouse. To become more intentional, here’s a simple checklist of things to do for your wife each year.  First, take a trip alone with her.  Spending time together away from the world is the perfect way to reconnect.  Second, make a big deal about her birthday.  Instead of just celebrating her birthday, celebrate her birth-week!  Third, give her a weekend away with her friends while you watch the kids. Fourth, write her a hand-written love letter. It’s not only good to show her you love her with your actions, but also with your words.
