Well, the weekend is (almost) finally here! Bryan and I are having my family over for SuperBowl which means I will be cleaning… a lot… this weekend 
Lucky it is supposed to be in the upper 70’s this weekend so I will open the windows and let the warmth and sunshine in! Enjoy your weekend
Family. You are about to have your very own (me too ). Will your family involve children? Hopefully you have already had that discussion. No? Go now, this can wait…. Ok, now most of us have realized that in some shape or form, we are our parents. I am my mother in more ways than one. But at the same time I have made conscious decisions to be different in certain areas.
Here are today’s questions:
1. What traditions and/or values do I like in my family and yours? How can we include these in our growing family?
2. What traditions and/or values from my family and yours do I dislike?
3. How many children would I like to have and when?
4. Have we decided what form of family planning (pill, natural family planning, condoms, etc) we will use?
5. What are the advantages and disadvantages of one of us being a stay-at-home parent?
6. If we practice different faiths, in what faith will we raise our kids?

Just wanted to thank you for continually posting these questions. So many people enter marriages without even thinking about some of these things… having these discussions early can ensure you’re both on the same page. Your questions have inspired many great conversations between my hubby and I that we may not have had without you posts!
Thanks – and keep ‘em coming!
I am so glad that they have been helpful
I found the experience to be great for our relationship (it didn’t change us, but I think it made us remember to think about the other persons needs more often) I still have a few chapters of questions left so stay tuned
