Colleen, we actually did used to have a giant penguin he got me on one of our anniversaries (name of Sanballat) but we gave it to a little girl when we went to Mexico

I ought to have clarified that it was a giant stuffed penguin. But if you think that it would be appreciated I can post a picture of it in the God's Creation forum?
Maybe he'll buy you a penguin instead

I was a bachelor for 33 years, so I learned to cook and clean and all that long before I met her. But have you tried cooking a meal for her sometime? Also, set the table and clean up afterward. That would let her know you think she is special.
And here's a suggestion (not one that I've followed personally though!); perhaps taking the time to write her a long love letter (and I mean hand write, not type) would be good. Godly men of old did that to their loves.
Back when I was wooing her, I memorized poems and recited those to her. In particular, I memorized Bobby Burns' "O My Love Is Like a Red, Red Rose" (she's Scottish, remember!). Perhaps you can do that!
One I had to find out the hard way -- turn off the TV while she is talking to you! This is especially effective if sports are on!

I've also recently found that too much time on the puritanboard does not go down too well!

Do what I did- get her on it!

Good idea... Reminds me of a good friend of mines daughters. They sit in there same house (sometimes in the same room) and instant message eachother .
That sounds like the missus and me! We'll sit two rooms away, both on Facebook, and play Word Twist and Scramble! Our sweet nothings will be "Your turn, sweetie!"

Very true my wife called the PB Bathsheba one time.... I took about a month off after that one
I am looking for suggestions on special things I can do for my wife to make her feel appreciated and loved. When we first married I always went out of my way to do little things that my wife appreciated. I will admit that I have slipped in my duties. Six years, two boys, work, etc... Men please let me know what yall have done and ladies let me know what your husbands have done for you. I would really like to here from the ladies. What can we husbands do for our wives that will show our love and appreciation?
Buy her a new iron. Women love getting stuff like that...
The first year we were married I bought her a new ironing board for Christmas. I still hear about that 30 years later.
I understand that offering to clean the bathroom for her can be a major show of love Especially when a male uses that bathroom regularly.
Hey, I asked for (and received) a vacuum for Christmas!
I am worried that you have to ask...
You know her better than we do. You said you "used to do little things". Do them again.
All I can say after 43 years with my sweetheart, is it's not what you buy her that makes a difference.
Be creative, maybe you could let her plan a day just for the two of you and let her decide what to do or give her a day to herself while you watch the kids so she can get caught up on some things. If you are wanting to buy a new book...buy one that you could read together for discussion.

Ruben is kind and patient every day.
For instance one evening recently I didn't do a very good job making dinner (readjusting to an electric stove from a gas skillet) and asked him about his meal (I knew it was an abomination). He smiled happily and said, "Well the chicken is burned, the peas are crunchy, and the potatoes are smushy. But here I sit, eating it all, because I love you."
Maybe you can't always say something so perfectly charming, but that sort of happy gentleness and patience daily mean more than any special occasion thing to me.
