Drawing closer to Christ. When we are both making an effort to be more like Him, we have a noticeable increase in intimacy in our marriage.

I hear you on the score cards. When you’ve been in a relationship for a very long time and young kids enter the picture and you’re trying to share responsibilities, it can be very easy to make little mental check-marks for each time he changes a diaper or cleans a dirty toilet. It breaks down the real communication and is abrasive on the love you feel and share with each other.

A hard habit to break but vital to do so!

Great post! I agree with everything you said….except I got a good laugh about the graduate school bit! My husband has been in graduate school for the past 7 years, during which time our family has also grown. Our stress-points are not as one-dimensional as one person changing and growing and the other not. We have both changed and grown. The main issue that we face is that our problems become magnified if we don’t devote TIME and ATTENTION to each other. The stresses on our marriage are the same as those who aren’t in school. However, graduate students have less time to do it all (school, family time, marriage), so oftentimes, and unfortunately, the marriage can get put last if you are not diligent about making it a priority. We call it the graduate school time warp – the demands of his program make it feel to him like it’s still 2004 (pre-graduate program). Meanwhile the years have zipped by at light-speed for me as I focus on raising our young children. We both have had to be intentional about “escaping” our “reality” so we can create those intimate moments that strengthen our marriage.

My husband and I have been married 14 years (I think!) and we still get closer all the time. We are always surrounded by our kids and almost never get date nights, but we sit and talk at the dinner table after all the kids have run off, have deep conversations on the drive to get groceries, give each other back rubs while watching our favorite shows in bed together and find other ways to connect. I think the biggest thing for us is that we go out of our way to be nice to each other and to appreciate each other. We also just honestly think the other is brilliant and wonderful.

My husband and I have “Coffee Time” each morning. He makes me a latte and we sit together for a minimum of 5 minutes (usually more like 20-30) and talk about the upcoming day, what we read/learned during our quiet time, and kid stuff that needs addressing. It’s a small, yet powerful way to connect with each other and to say to the kids- Mom and Dad need some time together because we love each other.
