Baby Steps

Our counselor asked that we write down 10 things that the other does/or we wish they would do that makes us feel loved.  After reading them aloud to one another, we were asked to keep the lists in a place where we could see them every day.  We are asked to do at least one thing on the list every day.

We make weekly appointments with one another, just the two of us, no interruptions, must remain partially clothed, candle lite and music and no sex.  We have done this 3 times.  We adhered to all the rules the first two times.

The other day I was putting up his clothes and found my list in his top drawer.  It made my heart leap.

Over the past few weeks I have seen an incredible change in him.................... in us.  Baby steps, but they are all steps moving us forward, not backwards.

We have a long way to go, but I want to thank the Not Alone Organization for all they have done for us.   We could not have made the progress we have if it were not for them.
