Wait for it..... surprise!

Relationship Wellbeing Specialist

Were you surprised?
Probably not, but how nice would it be if you were surprised by your partner with something you love, especially after a long day?
A positive and thoughtful surprise is a great way to connect. How good would you feel if you surprised your partner with one of their favorite things? How good would they feel?
Both of you would likely feel pretty great, so here are some ideas to try:
Cook your partner's favorite meal for them
Bring them breakfast in bed and enjoy the morning together
Write them a love letter by hand and mail it
Send them a random, loving text in the middle of the day
Throwback: make them a mixtape or CD of their favorite songs (a playlist works, too!)
These are just a few small things you could do any day of the week, and you don't even have to spend money. As the saying goes, the best things in life are free.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
