Practically Speaking - July 12, 2013

Words Of Affirmation
You'd be surprised how incredibly fulfilling a genuine "thank you" is to someone whose love language is Words of Affirmation. Next time you have a chance to express appreciation look that person in the eyes, pause until you have their attentiont, and say something like, "I just want you to know I am really appreciate ___________. Thank you."
 
Acts Of Service
Next time there is a load of dishes in the sink, offer to help your spouse. The dishes will get done quickly leaving plenty of time for other fun activities.
 
Receiving Gifts
Pillow presents can be small and playful, as much as they are meaningful. When the one you love isn't looking or in another room, place a small gift on their pillow. It may or may not be take some time for them to notice, but when they do you will most certainly know. The fun is in the anticipation.
 
Quality Time
Though it is not the dialect of every Quality Timer's love language, watching a T.V. show or series together can be a way to speak Quality Time. Sharing the experience of story as it unfolds can be meaningful and even lead to conversations (more Quality Time). So if the one you love loves movies or a particular TV series, grab some snacks, dim the lights, and cuddle up!

Physical Touch
If your spouse speaks the love language of Physical Touch, consider starting a "Project Touch." The goal? Touch your way to a better marriage by finding more ways to touch each other each and every day. This could be sexual, non-sexual, or both. Get creative and have fun!
