“There are only two things that you need to do to make your anniversary special for you and for your kids.”
— Allison Villa
How do you celebrate a special anniversary in a meaningful way while in the middle of a pandemic?
Anniversaries are a wonderful milestone for several reasons — they’re an opportunity to celebrate your relationship, look back on much you’ve grown together, and spend some time reconnecting on a romantic level.
On a personal level, this is a special episode of the podcast, as my husband Arjan and I celebrated our 10-year anniversary recently!
Arjan and I spent some time last year discussing how we wanted to celebrate this milestone. We even talked about possibly taking a trip to Iceland.
(This was before the onset of the pandemic. Obviously, we didn’t end up taking the trip, though we may still do so in the future!)
During a pandemic, dining out or traveling aren’t the easy options that they used to be, if they’re options at all. But, that’s actually okay! Because while grand gestures and big plans are a lovely way to celebrate your relationship, you do not have to go all out to mark your anniversary with meaning.
In order to make the day meaningful for both you and your partner and for your children, you really only need to do two things:
- Do one thing for you and your partner as a couple.
- Do one thing with your partner and children as a family.
In the case of couple time, you will need to ask for help from your extended family, friends, or community to make it happen, but this time spent as a couple will be so beneficial for your relationship.
Listen to the episode to learn more about the simple, meaningful things that you can do to mark your anniversary (even in lockdown), and how Arjan and I celebrated our 10 years together.
In this episode of Couplehood, you’ll discover:
- Why it’s so important to include your kids in your anniversary celebrations
- The #1 reason why the people around you will likely be happy to help you celebrate your anniversary as a couple
- How to let yourself be open to receiving the support that you need
“When you’re marking your anniversary, find a way to ask your community for support... If you don’t ask, then you’re not able to receive that support.”
