Now that life is returning to normal, and the other resolutions may be settling in some, or even waning a little, let's think about some resolutions for your love life.
The most obvious resolution that comes to mind is the number of times you carve out time for intimacy. For some of us a resolution like that will work, but for others of us, sometimes it's best to not go with the obvious.
What about deciding that during the times you spend with your husband, you decide that you'll be fully there in the moment? Not mentally going through the kitchen cabinets working on your grocery list, not trying to figure out how you can fit 36 hours of work into a 24 hour day and still get some sleep, and not wishing that you were sleeping. Fully present with your husband, physically and mentally. For some of us, that will be a big accomplishment.
What about deciding to do something unexpected with or for your husband? Something intimate and unexpected. Something that just might knock his socks off before he takes them off himself.
What about trading babysitting with a friend so you can have the house to yourselves for a night, or a weekend? Pull the shades and let him know clothing is optional until it's time to get the kids, and that you'll match him. (Any guess which option he'll choose?)
What about resolving to learn a new way to please your man, like oral sex? Or simply being more adventurous—in a way that he would consider adventurous.
Pick an area of your love life to work on this year, and go for it. Diligently pursue whatever it is you've chosen. Because it involves two of you, you and your husband, be aware that you might not be able to work on it on your time table. You'll have to take your husband's needs and desires into account—but isn't that what marriage is all about?
Go for it, girls!
Make this a year to be remembered in your marriage.
