Daily Date Idea # 16

Think legacy.

  • Tell your kids the story of your first date with your spouse.
  • Think of a 2-3 reasons why going out on a date with your spouse is good for your kids.  Talk to your kids about those reasons.  Enlist their help and support in planning a surprise date with your mate.
  • Find an elderly couple whose marriage you admire.  Ask them about their first date.  Better yet, arrange for a double date and talk more in depth.

What do you think?  Share your date idea in the comments!
