They just aren't used to hearing it. They may have even been trained to think it is "mushy." Too bad! I'm going to bless you anyway, darlin'. ;)<BR/><BR/>I just cried for joy as you told how he is beginning to open up and respond. I can tell you right now, this is going to transform your home!

It's refreshing to hear that you not only admit that you have fallen short, but that you are coming up with a plan to correct it. And the fact that you and your husband work on it together, well, that is beautiful. God certainly will bless you and others in this endeavor.

What a fabulous, fabulous post!!<BR/><BR/>When my husband and I were first married..his sister in law would make remarks to us about how "sure, NOW we were in love..but give it 5 years...or 10." We walked away feeling so sorry for her really...To speak that.<BR/><BR/>We made that kind of commitment too...it's not always an easy road...we have 3 MIRACLE babies..but my heart breaks when I hear so many speak so unkindly about the man they married....the one who is supposed to be their best friend....for life.<BR/><BR/>You have my vote today...the woman with the best advice to share!<BR/><BR/>Peace,<BR/>lorilorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17533409277703652869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141448169449587648.post-54358124062587175272008-08-18T10:08:00.000-07:002008-08-18T10:08:00.000-07:00Such a lovely post sweetie.
