Completing Him Challenge

So, I'm doing a really bloggy thing. I know what you're thinking!! "Sonya barely blogs! How can she do a bloggy thing?!?" Haha, believe me, I'm thinking the same thing. I subscribe to this really great blog called Women Living Well. For each Monday this summer, the author, Courtney, has a challenge going related to marriage. It's called the Completing Him Challenge. Each Monday, there is a specific topic that all the participants are supposed to blog about. Now, I know that I'm not married (YET!), but I figured, it certainly can't hurt to start working on becoming a good wife right now. My version of the challenge will be a bit modified, as I'm not married yet, but I'm thinking that the spirit of the whole challenge will not be lost and will certainly be beneficial.

If you'd like to join me, check out Women Living Well Completing Him Challenge. Maybe we could all do it together. (No pressure!)

Anyway, here are the topics that I'll be blogging about this summer. I figure once a week is totally do-able. (Stop laughing, Laura!)

June 7 - announce to your readers you are participating by posting the button on your site and leaving your link below. Optional: Embed the HTML from this video in your blog post!
June 14 – Post Pictures from your dating days (or tell us all about it!). Think about one thing you used to do or have as a couple that you have lost in the shuffle of life. How can you regain it?
June 21 - Remember Your Vows - post pictures of your wedding day. We will review the sacredness of this day.
June 28 - Ask your husband every morning how you can pray for him that day. Bonus: Fast and pray for him one day this week.
July 5 - Admire Your Husband. Write this post and then show it to him! He will smile!
July 12 - Make a list of 5 things you currently do and ask him to prioritize them for you of what is important to him. For example - a clean home, home cooked dinner, coupon clipping, service at church, having friends over for dinner, watching/doing sports with him, etc.
July 19 - Make him a priority. Ask him what his favorite dinner, dessert and drink are. Be sure to serve him all three one night this week. Bonus: cook his favorite dishes all week long!
July 26 - Support his vision. Discuss his vision for your family. Where does he see your family in 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years. Share with us how you let your husband lead.
August 2 - R-E-S-P-E-C-T! No complaining, criticizing, rolling your eyes, nagging, or giving him any friction this week. Enjoy a week of peace in your home!
August 9 - Kiss Him Like You Mean It (and be sure the door is locked!)

Ok, that was the first assignment -- just telling you all about it. Feel free to check up on me through the journey. I'm gonna need all the help I get in becoming the wife that Jason needs. :)
