February Marriage Goal, Day 3

I stated in my first post that I have felt for a while that I should get up with my husband while he gets ready for work... and I have been ignoring the feeling.

On day #2, I asked my husband if he liked me getting up with him, making sure he had breakfast, and seeing him out the door.  My husband, the man I love, the person who rarely ever gives me an opinion (I think he's afraid of me), looked me in my eyes and said "yes".  He even said it with a smile.

So, here I go.  Day 3 of getting up with my husband before he goes to work.





February Marriage Goal, Day 8




With my coffee in hand and breakfast prepped the night before, I got to spend time with my husband before he went to work.  It's a good way to start our day!

I'm up to Psalms Chapter 28.
Pray for clarity in my choices and confidence in God's direction.

GIVING OF OURSELVES

I've set big goals for 2014 and use each month to break them down into smaller goals.
 It's more manageable this way, easier to stay focused and leaves me feeling successful.

February Marriage Goal, Day 6

Hubby didn't have to be in to work as early this morning, so I got to sleep in.  Who would have ever thought that I would consider 6:30 sleeping in!  :-)

February Marriage Goal, Day 5

My brain is a little fuzzy this morning and  I think it's going to be a two cups of coffee kind of day.  

But, my husband left for work with a smile!

Simply Thursday



A slower pace leaves more time for the things we live.  Like both boys having 30 minutes of reading time before bed.
