Love One Another – Learning to Love (she: Lindsay)

I think sometimes we over-complicate what life is all about. If we were to boil life down to one main purpose, it would be to learn to love one another. To learn to love like God loves. Without reservation, without conditions, without judgement. To learn to love. To really love. And to treat each other accordingly. That’s it. But how do we accomplish this? Read on to see some suggestions.

Date Your Spouse – Conversation Prompts For Your Next Date (she: Heather)

Remember when you first met and went on dates with your spouse? When you could talk for hours about hopes and dreams and nonsense?

Do you ever go out with your spouse and find that all you talk about now are your kids? Or your family problems and worries? Or maybe you struggle to find something to talk about at all?

Kids and stresses and struggles are important to talk about, but not on our dates. Dates are hard to come by in the first place. They should not be laden with worries. They should be filled with laughter, love, and lots and LOTS of hand holding.

I know what you’re thinking, “If we can’t talk about kids, and struggles, what do we talk about then?”

Here is a list of things you can talk about when you date your spouse. Whether you use them during your Valentine date, or any other date you go on with your spouse. Whether you stay in, or go out, whether it’s in February or any other month of the year, print the list, take it with you and you’ll have plenty to talk about.

Love Note Printables for National Love Note Day (she: Anne)

Hello there and Happy September! It’s Anne from Circus Berry. We have entered one of my favorite months of the year…the one that kicks off fall, all things pumpkin-and apple-flavored, MY BIRTHDAY, and…National Love Note Day. That’s right! September 26th is National Love Note Day.

The timing of this special little day is perfect. In the midst of back-to-school, back-to-lessons, practices, and rehearsals, tight schedules, (and for this household, the chaos of a keeping up with a newborn plus two other lively, sassy kids) we may all forget to take a moment remind our loved ones how much we love them, or what we love about them. And aren’t those little gestures important too?
Today, I am sharing some perfect, open-ended love note printables for you to use with your loved ones. Use them all in one day, across days, on one family member, or with the whole family. Take a moment to share what you love. Put a smile on someone’s face with a little surprise note!
