What does he lilke? There are so many thigns you can do. I like to surprise him with something that tells a story. Take him to the restaurant you guys went to on your first date (or a special restaurant for both of you) and make arrangements for them to play your song (most couples have a song) while you are ordering dessert. On your way back drive by a park that is special to you guys take a blanket in the car to lay there and stare at the stars and sometime in the park give him a little present that you can make or read him a thank you for being....letter or poem.

I agree with the meal and massage, men love that stuff.
If I want him to feel special, i great him when he comes home from work, I let him unwind how he likes (be it watch the game or what have you), and I give him a foot and shoulder massage...
Then I am off to the kitchen to finnish up dinner. Cook him his favorite meal.
After dinner, tell him you had a full body massage in mind. Give him one in the privacy of your bedroom, and see where it leads you.
(oh, by the way, so people don't think I am some sort of old fashioned, subservient wife, I am the corporate bread winner, but I still like treating my Mr.)

That is the most sweetest thing I've heard tonight. I just asked my husband what he would really enjoy. No help there, all I got was "Really, well we could go to the bedroom" Right then I said "Nothing sexual" "Well I don't know then" he said. Then he kissed me and said just looking at what I have is all I want. I think you should sit him down and tell how wonderful he is. Get the kids to make something for him. Give him another fathers day, and say to him you deserve two fathers day because your so good at it.

I too am a stay at home mom with very little money. One time I made my husband a music video singing him a Martina McBride song Valentine. I recorded myself on the camcorder singing along to it from the stereo. I put on something pretty to wear.
I've given him candle light dinners with his favorite meal.
I've made him posters with our 3 kids handprints painted on them saying I love you.
Once I made him a life size poster of myself and wrote things I love about him all over it.
Cut out a kiss and write I love you and put it on the mirror for when he wakes up.
Put a note in his lunchbox and let him know you are thinking of him when he is at work.
Surprise him at the door with a great big hug and have the kids waiting there with you when he comes home.
Record one of his favorite shows that he doesn't always get to watch. Serve him his favorite snack while he's watching it.
Maybe a relative could watch the kids and you could surprise him with a night to yourselves playing board games, watching movies and or talking.
It's nice to hear that your husband is your bestfriend. I hope I've helped!

I am a husband of a stay at home mom too. For me, I always appreciate any homemade gift from my wife and kids. Be creative and have your kids be involved. The last one I got was a shirt with our pictures on it and hand prints of our kids....stuff like that!

Well if your got the kinky stuff under control, then you dont need any other ideas. Oh wait, have you tried just doing something small that he would appreciate, cook tea, surpise him with a small gift

Honestly, just a card telling him how much you appreciate everything he does and how happy you are that you married such a wonderful man. Follow it up by making him his favorite meal, and obviously...some good sex. If he's as wonderful as you say, I'm sure he'll appreciate all of these things.

I am a firm believer in "the best way to man's heart if through his stomach" Make him his favorite meal from scratch, complete with dessert.

Cook his favorite meal, a relaxing bath, cuddle up, and watch a movie that both of you would enjoy.
