Welcome to my Blog

I Will Honor My Husband blog site began as a wife's journey to love, honor and cherish her husband everyday for one full year in 2011. The experience was so awesome that I am continuing the journey. As the Lord guides me I will continue to post about how I am honoring my husband on at least a weekly basis. This blog is for me and other wives to learn how to be more intentional in demonstrating our love, honor and respect for our husbands in a way that matters to them most. Last year it was a challenge and a goal to make it a habit, this year I hope to realize the habit as a way of life. I welcome, encourage and invite you to - Join the Movement! and let the world know you honor your husband.

My prayer is that marriages and lives will be changed across the globe by the expression of "One Year of Love". Please send me a picture of you and your husband so the world will know you have joined the movement.

Day 169 Honoring My Husband With Trading Places

Today I unexpectedly came across a very interesting little book titled, Trading Places, a Workbook for Men.  Unfortunately I could not find the counterpart which is the Workbook for Women or the book, Trading Places which the workbook is intended to accompany.  The cover of the book states it is the best move you'll ever make in your marriage, so of course I could not pass it by.  As I perused it I discovered that it is filled with exercises a husband and wife can do separately and then talk about them together.  The book was written by a husband and wife team named Drs. Les & Leslie Parrott who are apparently experts on the topic of marriage and relationships and shared in the creation of the eHarmony online service.
                   
                                                 

Today I am honoring my husband with Trading Places and completing the eHarmony exercise to see what we can learn about each other and from each other.  The exercise is to answer the following questions separately and then discuss them together:

1.  If you could press a magic button right now to make you a better husband/wife, what one specific thing would you improve?

2. Name one specific desire you would like to have fulfilled more frequently in your marriage.  In other words, what one single relationship improvement would make you a happier husband/wife?

3.  If you were married to yourself, what would you find to be most challenging and why?

4.  If you were married to yourself, what would you find to be most rewarding and why?

I will be honoring my husband by completing the questions and asking him to do the same.  I am already curious about his answers. 

Wives of the world indulge yourself in a fun activity and honor your husband by Trading Places with the eHarmony exercise to see what you discover about each other?  Please share your experience with us; we would love to hear from you.

Blessings,

Rochelle
