I plan on practicing marriage skills every day

Ok I admit it.  I've been bettter at talking about marriage skills than learning and applying them.   and I've been better at talking about others running away from practicing good communication in their marriage than doing my own communication with my wife.  And worst of all, I've escaped over and over into creating another facet of our relationship programs for work instead of practicing what I preach in my own marriage.  But BEST of all, I've realized it, and have committed to spending a few minutes every day reviewing basic reltionship skills - "LUV TALK", as the Smalleys call it - Listening, Understanding and Validating.

So all you bloggers and friends and twitterers out there, as we support, exchange and follow each other, please hold me to task to practice what I preach.
