And our family has always shared read alouds, long after the girls were old enough to read by themselves. Now that they're out of the house, I still read to my hubby, who's an auditory learner and LOVES it :)Lori Hatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11675180460653949981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-45378177367644806072012-10-04T12:20:32.107-04:002012-10-04T12:20:32.107-04:00This is awesome!

God. <br /><br />I can also say just from my own experience that we also connect a lot more when we read to each other "for fun" (like read a book). And when we do feel a little like roommates, we also remind ourselves that feelings can change based on the weather, the time of the month, whether you're hungry or tired...feelings come and feelings go.

But my husband had been asking me if I would get up with him partially because he loves mornings and partially because when I stay in bed, he's tempted to stay in bed too. For the past 2 weeks, we've been getting up together, early in the morning, and it has done wonders for helping us both get back into a devotional routine.<br /><br />Elizabeth@Warrior Wives<br />www.thewarriorwives.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
