52 Things You Should Know About Your Spouse

My last blog post was about how I have been getting back to normal. Well, in me getting back to normal, my relationship with my husband has gotten back to normal as well. It'll of course never be the same as it was in BC (before children) time, but we'll getting to know more about each other again. It seems like having kids takes that away with the stress, the sheer exhaustion. Nothing says arguing quite like a baby. Just for fun the other night, I goggled "things your spouse should know about you." Surprisingly both he and I knew all of these questions. It was fun, we had a lot of laughs and discussions. We didn't print them out, we just read them and answered them. We even stayed up later than usual (shocking, I know! Every minute counts when you work full time outside the home.) Without further delay: here they are. Feel free to comment your experience or if it's too personal, email it. :)
