Can We Talk???
Tuesday, June 17

Healthy, honest communication is essential to establish and maintain a thriving marriage. Most couples admit they experience difficulty having meaningful conversations with their spouse. Some sadly say, “We don’t really talk at all.” Is our tendency to be a “babbling brook” or a “dead sea” and how is that impacting our marriage?

When differences begin to give rise to resentment, how do we bring those issues up without inflicting pain?

Expressing Love
Wednesday, June 18

What should we do when those exciting feelings of love seem to be long gone? Some easy strategies that will help us express love to each other and refill each other’s empty “love tanks.” Let’s review our “love languages” and how to act out of love—two crucial steps to renewing your relationship.

After Dark
Thursday, June 19

We may giggle or avoid the subject, but there is no denying that God created sex and designed it as a powerful means for expressing love. Does great sex lead to greater intimacy or can great intimacy lead to greater sex. I think by Thursday night we’ll have already discovered the answer.



There You Are
Friday, June 19
There you are in the early light of dayThere you are in the quiet words I prayI've been blessed by the simple happinessOf the perfect love we've madeEvery time I turn around When I'm lost and when I'm foundLike an angel standing guardThere you areEvery time I take a breathAnd when I forget to breatheYou're watching over meThere you areWhen I'm looking for the lightIn the middle of the nightSearching for the brightest starThere you areThere you are in standing in a crowded roomThere you are the earth and I'm the moonMy desire is to stand by the fireThat burns inside of you

One year later...

It wasn't fair. This time was supposed to be about Janet. She earned it, dreamed about it, and yearned to celebrate it. Instead I trumped her new mommy status and 31st birthday with a heart attack.

If it were me I would have been bitter, sad and a little jealous. I would have resented the fact that I couldn't complain because I would appear selfish and insensitive. But the truth of the matter is Janet was forced to surrender the spotlight too soon after Goo's birth.

I know we're not talking the trials of Job here, but Janet missed the special attention and celebration of her second child and her birthday in the same three weeks. Today I celebrate the birth of my wife. Someone who rarely gets the special one time offer, the parking space closest to the door, or the on-sale dress in her size.

Too often Janet gets: the bitter co-worker, mayo on her chicken sandwich, a watered down DP, an ebay sniper waiting to outbid her, an insensitive husband and a self-absorbed son.

I love you pretty. Thank you for all that you do, that never gets acknowleged.

Hopefully this year will be a much Happier Birthday!

Come Back, I'll have cookies

Thanks for visiting my site. First let me assure my wife my blogs will be few and far between. Consider this blog as a supplement to Life With the Wisners, much like the dulche de leche in a Starbucks latte.


Now that I think about it, it's the dulche de leche the people want, not the actual coffee. So consider my blog the coffee and Janet's the syrup.

But that would imply that my blog has the substance and my wife's is the artificial flavor.

hmmmm.....this hole is getting deeper.

Did I mention how wonderful my wife is?
