The Love dare Day 0

So tomorrow, i start the Love dare. It's a program to make promises to yourself and your spouse to treat each other with love and respect. each day is a new dare that you carry out thru the forty days and beyond.

the first dare is Love is Patient.

This hits home, with a crazy household, raising two toddlers, and trying to make a barely there budget work. i can relate at how many times i have lost my temper with him, myself my kids, just life in general. It says that patience isn't just not snapping at whoever has crossed you, but a deep breath, a fresh start. its better if you can't say anything nice, say nothing at all(thanks bambi)

i tell you what, i know we have room to grow in our marriage, and we definatly have to be a team to survive my little monkeys(monsters) so, here we go.

i Dare myself to be Patient all day tomorrow not only with my husband but with myself as well.

  1. So great Rachel. Looking forward to seeing how this transforms you and your relationship with the hubby. I tried over lent to do The Love Dare, but failed miserably. I'll give it another go one of these days when I actually get to see my husband for more than a few minutes a day.
