Read this article today and found it very insightful. Many marriages (including my own) go through seasons were it seems that everything, regardless of how small, can turn into conflict with your spouse. Here are two great suggestions from the article:
Money
Sit down together and work out a budget. Agree to take a look at expenses every month. If the meeting is pre-arranged and you both come to the table with 100% transparency, then the conversation about money can move from the emotional and into the practical.
Family communication
“You never talk!” “You never listen!” Well, it’s easy to be distracted, so try this
- No TV during meals
- Dedicate 30 minutes every evening to “conversation with coffee” (or the beverage of your choice)
- Go through a book such as “201 Great Questions,” and actually schedule time for a tête-à-tête every day

How I've Been Spending My Saturdays

At the time, I wasn't quite sure what I was thinking but looking back I'm sure glad I choose to coach my son's soccer team. Although trying to coach 3, 4, 5, and 6 year old boys can be very daunting (sort of like hurding cats), it truly is a blast! It was especially fun this weekend since Ethan scored his first goal.
