Geez.....this is my first time reading this post and I had to go kiss my husband in the middle of reading it. It just made me fall in love all over again. Come on, Shimmie. Give us some more!!!!!!!
Also, it's nice to see sooo many other women that are married on here. I definitely need a marriage mentor. Maybe we can start that on LHCF. All of the women who have been married for awhile can be examples and points of reference for all of us youngins who haven't been married that long. Maybe I can learn how to have patience with my man. Okay let me stop hijacking this post!!!!
Back to you, Shimmie!!!
Here's Another One Just for You, Precious One:
Take his favorite fruit juice, or homemade herbal ice tea, or fresh lemonade and freeze it in an ice cube tray.
(If you can find a heart shaped tray, it's perfect for heart-shaped ice cubes. You can purchase a heart shaped candy mold from a craft store like 'Michaels' Arts and Crafts or other type of craft store). Jello molds are good, and feel free to use any shaped mold or ice cube tray you like. Just have fun.
Now, when the cubes are frozen, take a very nice glass (crystal stemware, or a nice glass of your choice) fill the glass with the cubes.
Place the glass on a nice crystal plate and with little petals of flowers or frozen grapes or fresh
unfrozen strawberries. With a very nice napkin (your choice of color, design or paper/cloth), take the glass of cubes and place it on the table beside him, with a note that says,
"When this melts, I'm all yours." Or you can whisper the same message to him in his ear.
After delivering the message, go and prepare yourself to be with him for the rest of the night.
Warning: He may head to the microwave with the glass of ice cubes for a quick 'melt-down'.
Either way, enjoy your husband. God's gift to you.
Why go through all the bother of the ice cubes?
Anticipation is a wonderful element for marriage. It's giving both you and your husband something 'fun' to look forward to. It takes away from the 'ordinary' - same ole, same ole of sex maybe or maybe not tonight.
It also perks him up if he's the kind who watchs TV and falls asleep. He'll stay awake knowing and wondering what you have planned for him tonight.
FYI: More Ice - More time for you to prepare
If he falls asleep while your prepare, wake him gently with the ice...not harshly...but gently
arouse him from his sleep. (Use your imagination
).
