The married life is more like being in a basketball game. The couple have to work as a team to keep on earning points, and win every game they have to go through.

The love language tip has worked wonders in me getting a better understanding of what my children need from me. <br />And yes, men need and appreciate a direct clear need statement. I would deny my wife and children nothing that they need and I feel the worst when I fail them out of ignorance. <br />I agree that forgiveness is key. Life only gets bad when we let disagreement build and fester. <br />If I were to add something I'd say a couple needs a unity project. Like working together to get out of debt, remodel a home, or run a business. Something where you sink or swim together that isn't your marriage. It will teach you life lessons where the consequence of life growing failures do not have to impact your most precious asset. Your family.

I try not to get into a fight before bed--just put the reason I'm upset on hold until tomorrow. <br /><br />But honestly, we usually don't fight much. I think a lot of that is not letting resentment build up. amberargylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05058327741777322247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14317779362944180.post-25057311434165866222015-02-27T15:41:29.386-07:002015-02-27T15:41:29.386-07:00Amber, thanks for being so candid and real soundin...Amber, thanks for being so candid and real sounding. One thing that has really helped us is making a real effort to have date night once a week. It may be completely lame, like going out for fast food or quick groceries, then going home to watch a movie at home without kids because we are exhausted, but calling it date night and reserving time to be together has made such a difference. (I can NOT go to bed after a disagreement without some sort of resolution because I can't sleep, but that is just me. For all those who can, kudos!)
