Monday Marriage Moments {2 Questions to Ask to Reconnect}

-We love marriage just as much as we love weddings. Take a moment to prepare not just for the wedding, but for the marriage –

This Friday night we were not planning on having a date night. But when our appointment for the evening was cancelled, we scrambled to find a babysitter and made it happen. After having a busy week knowing that there would be another busy week ahead, we felt the need to reconnect.

As we waited for our meal to arrive we tried something new. We asked ourselves two questions and shared the answers:

1. What is one thing about you that I appreciate?

2. What is one thing about our life together that I appreciate?

We shared our answers. Even more came to mind while listening to each other and we shared those too. It was so nice. It was nice that we were able to refocus and remember the blessings that we have in each other and as a couple.  And It is always fun to hear your spouse say nice things about you too! It was beautiful. We have asked each other question #1 before, but question #2 was a new spin on it. Question #2 caused us not just to think of each of us as individuals, but as a couple. To count our blessings not just in the material things that we share but the way that we are together and who we are together. I do not know what inspired us to ask those questions, but I am glad that we did and we certainly will again.
