Holiday Relationship Tip 7

Have Fun and Celebrate I’m limiting fun here to actions that are high energy, physical, and end up in a belly laugh. My experience is that we tend to do this more with our kids, but not so much with our partners. It is easier to play fight, wrestle, have water balloon fights, or tickle […]
