I confess … I’m like (I think) most married men. I’m not so hot at the romance thing … I love my wife more than I could tell you, and more than I can tell her. She KNOWS I love her. But I’m really not good at that soft, squishy, relational … not necessarily physical … loving stuff. Fortunately, for the romantically challenged amongst us, some genius coined the idea of the regular, intentional, “Date Night”. And if you want help on that idea, FamilyLife (www.familylife.com) has a couple of great books — “Simply Romantic Nights” (volumes 1 and 2). But I had an inspiration the other day. Myra and I were sitting in a car park, waiting to go and meet some folks. We were early, and so we thought we’d just sit for a few minutes, watching the lake. Then it struck me… This was ROMANTIC !!! Romance didn’t have to be this great planned activity … it could be 5 minutes, focused on each other … any where, any time. The Date Bite was born. Be intentional. Take 5 for loving …

Ian you are the most lovable, squishy, romantic, lover any woman could wish for. just the simple things of life are the very best any man could offer and it shows how much you care.
Thank you for all the things you do, do for me they are readily accepted.
Most of all thank you for your love it means a lot to me.
If any one is reading this I would just like to say, this is something Ian and I do for each other, it keeps us connected whilst he is at work, and I like him to know that I LOVE him, and a very fun thing to do.
