Welcome to my Blog

I Will Honor My Husband blog site began as a wife's journey to love, honor and cherish her husband everyday for one full year in 2011. The experience was so awesome that I am continuing the journey. As the Lord guides me I will continue to post about how I am honoring my husband on at least a weekly basis. This blog is for me and other wives to learn how to be more intentional in demonstrating our love, honor and respect for our husbands in a way that matters to them most. Last year it was a challenge and a goal to make it a habit, this year I hope to realize the habit as a way of life. I welcome, encourage and invite you to - Join the Movement! and let the world know you honor your husband.

My prayer is that marriages and lives will be changed across the globe by the expression of "One Year of Love". Please send me a picture of you and your husband so the world will know you have joined the movement.

Day 267 Honoring My Husband With A Countdown

Five days and counting.
It is getting close to the time when I will be totally done with school.  As I walk around my house and look at all the projects I want to complete and my list of to do's to help my husband get his business more organized I decided I am close enough to begin the countdown.

I decided last month that I would join a fellow blogger my doing 30 days of thanks for November.  I have been keeping note in my journal and today I am thankful for the blessing of nearing the end of my program.  It has been a blessing and it has been a sacrifice for both me and Bryan. Today I am honoring him with a countdown.  As of today I have 5 more days to go.  We both are crazy excited. 

I decided to take the month of December off and to serve in the capacity of a wife.  You might be thinking you are already a wife and you are correct.  However in our 12 + years of marriage, I have always had several other responsibilities like work, school etc.  However once I complete school this weekend, my schedule is wide open with the exception of church.  I decided instead of seeking another client that I would see what it really feels like to dedicated my time to being a wife.  To help me in this journey, I have also decided to develop a survey to solicit input on what all of you think it means to be a wife, so stay tuned for the survey it will be coming out early next week.

Today I am honoring my husband with a countdown; a countdown to the completion of my program and to really being a wife full time.  I am excited about what I will learn and a little nervous about what he will expect, but I'm ready.

Wives of the world how can you honor your husband's with a countdown? Is there something you or him is looking forward to that you can begin to get excited about and build the moment by incorporating a daily countdown process?  How can you honor your husband with a countdown today?  Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.

Blessings,

Rochelle
