    We do not really so gifts for Christmas however last year he got me a really ugly good and diamond watch which reiterated why I prefer we not DO gifts

    I love my man but he's no Romantic Movie man - My man is a MAN if you do not directly ask or smack him upside the face with something he will not do it ... he shows his love in typical man ways ... makes sure my vehicle me is safe, cleans the snow off it, covers me up with a blanket if I fall asleep on couch and stuff like that general kindness type things where he shows he's thinking of me on a daily basis ... once in a blue moon he will do flowers spontaneously or take me out to fancy dinner for no reason but not too often ... if I want flowers or chocolates or something pretty I buy it myself
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."

    Yup, I'm with Reggio on this. I've been married 34 years. My hubby is a kind person with a great sense of humour. He shows love by helping me out, making sure the snow is shovelled, my car has an oil change, and he makes a fire when it's cold out. He brings me flowers for Valentine's Day and Mother's Day but doesn't buy gifts otherwise. I've bought my own Christmas presents for years. I wrap them and tease him for weeks about how surprised he will be when he sees what he bought me. It works for us.
