Day #1

Many of you have asked me about the 30 day challenge to speak kind words to your husbands. I'll just put the links on here as I go so you can see them. That way we can do it together although it might take longer than 30 days. For the pound-off, I'm using many of the recipies from Denise Austin's book "Lose Those Last 10 Pounds" even though I have more than 10 pounds to lose. To keep track of everything I've been using FlyLady's Body Clutter Investigator Form and going to Curves. I'll put a link to the form later.

Day One:
"The heart of her husband safely trusts her; so he will have no lack of gain. She does
him good and not evil all the days of her life." Prov. 31:11-12
To refresh your memory...here's the 30-Day Encouragement Challenge...for the next 30
days:
* You can't say anything negative about your husband ...to your husband...or to anyone
else, about your husband.
* Say something that you admire or appreciate about your husband...to your
husband...and to someone else, about your husband!
To help you get started, have you ever thanked your husband for "choosing you" above
all other women? He found you attractive as a person, and appreciated you. Though
many circumstances in your marriage may have changed, let your husband know that
you are glad God led you together, and that you want to be a blessing to him for the rest
of your marriage. Let him know that he can trust you to be in his corner.
One of the best opportunities to express your gratitude is first thing in the morning. How
do you greet your husband each morning? Is he confident in your love? Give him a
"wake up call" that he'll never forget-a big "I love you" and an "I'm so glad I'm your wife!"
