In the nearly 7 years I’ve been married, I’ve learned a lot from my husband. I think I take a lot of it for granted but I took a few minutes to reflect and think about what he’s taught me.

1. How to make tuna casserole. I didn’t come from a casserole eating family, he did (4 BIG boys in one house - casseroles were a must). I never thought I’d like noodles, cream of mushroom soup and tuna quite so much.

2. How to enjoy foot massages. I used to HATE having my feet rubbed. Oh how I enjoy it so now.

3. How to play strategy games (and like it). Ok, I’ll NEVER like Risk, but I have been introduced to some pretty fun games that don’t just involve drawing a card and heading to Gum Drop Mountain.

4. I look at packaging. Being married to an engineer who has dealt with how products are packaged in different jobs he’s had, he’s always looking at how products are kept safe harm. I do that now and then ask him about their process. It’s really dorky but without him I never would have noticed.

5. How to let go. I’ve always been a really tense person and he’s really helped me to take time to enjoy what I’m doing and take a break from the worry. I don’t know what I’d do without him.

I think spouses should always try to learn and teach from on another. What have you learned from your husband or wife through the years?
