**CLOSED! Winner posted here!!**
Most people know that my husband is in the military.
It's tough when he has to deploy.
The longest he's been gone is a year.
Reunions are always a joyous occasion but sometimes in the back of the mind I think, "When will he have to go again?"
This is why the following giveaway is close to my heart.
I was contacted to post the Finally Home to Family Widget. On it, you can take a romance recipe quiz to find out what your spouses secret ingredient for romance is.
You can download the Finally Home Dates PDF and found out some ways to spice up your romance life.
And finally, if you feel you are alone in your struggles (after all, saying goodbye and reuniting all the time is not easy) you can check out other stories from couples who candidly talk about what they've been through.
The following was copied from the e-mail I was sent. I felt it important to share:
"For many service men and women the day they return home is the happiest day of their lives! We have all seen the happy reunions of families during the holidays, but what happens after the reunion is over? For many men and women it’s the beginning of a new struggle, the struggle to put their families back together again, and it’s not easy. Military divorces have increased 42% since 2001, and that number is sure to increase with the number of service men and women returning home from Afghanistan."
Looking for a way to bring romance back?
I was generously told I could give away a $15 gift card to Amazon.com, which will be sent electronically to the winner.
Amazon has tons of different items that can be used to spice up your love life!

ReplyDeleteYour spouse likes to be in the middle of the action where the crowd is. One of the ways they receive love is when you clear the schedule and make time for the little things that often get lost in the busyness of life. They love it when you affirm them with your words, so go the extra mile and tell them of how much they mean to you.

ReplyDeleteI have never had to change my tire or mow the lawn. Success after 30 years as far as I'm concerned.
