Marriage Monday (6)



  1. Name one attribute that you are working on this week.  (Examples include: respect, compassion, playfulness, generous, forgiving, flexibility, sensitivity, understanding, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, affectionate...)  I'm writing this one word on an index card and taping it on the microwave as a reminder!
  2. How can you make your spouse's life easier this week?  (It's not cheating to ask your spouse for help with this one!!!)
  3. What is one thing that you love, respect or appreciate about your spouse?

MY FOCUS:
  1. COMPASSIONATE
  2. Buy (or make) the snack food that he's been craving!!
  3. I love his heart for adoption and growing our family!
I LOVE when you participate in the comments!  What can you do this week to improve your marriage?

1. I'm going to work on not being so critical of him. I don't know what I do this. I think it's become a habit that needs to go away.

2. I'm going to keep up with the laundry.

3. I appreciate the little routine he had developed with MG in the evenings. He takes her for a jog with him, bathes her and they play together every evening. He is then the one to put her to bed. She loves it and it gives me time to do whatever I need to or to just sit and relax for a few minutes.

1. I am going to curb my tendency to whine/point out the negatives. Seriously, what is this burning desire to dwell on every inconvenience or imperfection???

2. I'm going to either a) Clean the living room or b) Make him a nice dinner (so rare these days).

3. I appreciate his willingness to set aside his own personal financial goals to help restore my health and sanity.
