Marriage Mondays (5)



  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. Be more INVITING.
  2. Make the camping trip we keep talking about really happen.  Make the prayer plan that we keep talking about really happen.  
  3. I love, respect and admire that he is willing to face tough things for our family.

1) Being grateful! Focusing on what I have rather than what I don't have...
2) Play the piano if he needs to work at night. :)
3) He works REALLY hard for us... sure, I'm a piano teacher but I can assure you it doesn't pay the big bills!

Thanks for doing this, Lauren!! :)

1) Emotional control: recognizing and letting the emotion pass, rather than indulging it.
2) Get the kids to bed on time and go to bed at a decent time.
3) Him helping the boys with their homework and reading regularly to our youngest son.
