Marriage

I got to talking about this un-spoken rule we have here at our house... I was talking to a friend and explaining how we never say no to each other. LOL. Okay let me explain. :) I was thinking about it and Aaron and I have this desire to truly care about the wants, needs and desires of each other. So because of that when we ask each other to do things it's an automatic yes. I don't even think about it. Some examples are getting one another a drink, food, taking the kids for a walk to give the other a brake, changing that poopy diaper, starting a load of laundry, giving each other time with friends, dressing in a way that pleases the other, and massages. It may sound funny, but it's true. I can always count on Aaron and he can always count on me. :)

It's taken some time to get to this place (6rs to be exact), but it's wonderful since we've arrived. I really can count on this un-spoken rule. The only problem is that sometimes that independent spirit of mine can get in the way. :/ I have always had a hard time asking for help. Luckily I have a husband that has taken the time to understand me and can read me like a book. Therefore when I'm in my independent mind set he can see it and just step in without me asking. This is truly a beautiful picture of Christ's love working through him and blessing me.

So my challenge is humble yourself, ask for help and in return never say no. Treat each other with the same servant hood you would desire.
