My Likes and Your Likes
Welcome back, we definitely missed recording and it's great to be back! Our topic for this week is what do you do when your significant other doesn't want to do everything the same as you? We talk about how we struggle with knowing what to do when we have our differences.  We haven't quite figured this one out, but we realize this is one of the great mysteries of marriage and are working things out and learning day by day. Stay tuned :)

Expectations in Relationships
Hi again, In this week's podcast we talk about how the way we were raised has caused expectations in our relationship.  We touch base on love languages as well as being open to letting go of expectations and accepting differences.

Love Has Its Own Timing
Welcome! We are happy to have you join us for a reflection back on where our story began. We discuss the difficulties of dating, being vulnerable, and fun times down memory lane.  Today's quote can be found in the book The Four Loves by C.S. Lewis. "To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly be broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness.  But in that casket -- safe, dark, motionless, airless -- it will change.  It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable."

School Life for a Little Person
Thanks for joining us! In this week's episode we dive more into Jonathan's journey as it relates to school for a little person. He opens up about what was a struggle for him through school, education, and socializing with peers. "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the autumn leaves." -John Muir

Jonathan's Journey Into the World
Welcome back, In this weeks episode we take a look into Jonathan's unique journey as a baby as well as touching base on accepting differences. We are thankful to Jonathan's mom, Mercedes, who was kind and let us pick her brain as far as her experience being pregnant with Jonathan and everything that followed. "The rule for all of us is perfectly simple. Do not waste time bothering whether you "love" your neighbor; act as if you did. As soon as we do this we find one of the great secrets. When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you will presently come to love him. If you injure someone you dislike, you will find yourself disliking him more.  If you do him a good turn, you will find yourself disliking him less." - C.S Lewis
