Love Dare~~~~ Day 11

Husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies--Ephesians 5:28

What need does your spouse have that you could meet today? Can you run an errand? Give a back rub or foot massage? Is there housework you could help with? Choose a gesture that says, "I cherish you" and do it with a smile.

Well it's Sunday and that usually means getting up super early and yelling and screaming.....but today will be different.. I woke up and started getting the kids outfits ready. Dave was asking what was for breakfast? Are we going to IHOP or not? His usual rant about we are going to be late, we'll never get in!! Well, I darn near bit my tongue off again, but I am happy to say with my tongue in tact, I did my dare. We went to IHOP and no yelling. Then he bascially thought it was OK to kidnap the whole family to Wildwood. We walked at least 2 miles up and back, bought 2 kites ( 1 ladybug and 1 spiderman) and flew them on the beach. We ate lunch and bought some fires and cotton candy which is usually when I started flipping NOT ON YOUR OUTFITS OR NOT IN MY VAN! Nope not today, oh yea, I also had the kids dress up in old time photos and for sure, I thought my son David would give the most complaints, actually he only "Really" and I said "YES", he said "OK". My oldest daughter, Jenna, was in a state of shock. Check out the photo....hehehehehe........I'm not so pleased with them holding the guns, but it was done in fun!! Then a nice dinner out, home and nite nite.
