Therapy

So Jason and I have been seeing a family counselor for about a month now. We started so we could get some help understanding how to deal with our kids. In the process we found that we needed some help with our own relationship. Today we went to see him and found out that we were arguing all week about something that could have been solved easily. We have to stop mind reading each other and placing thoughts that are not necessary. It confuses the real message coming from the other person. He actually stopped us just prior to a fight to make us realize that we were not that far off from understanding each other. We had the same train with the same basic knowledge but we turned in different directions. Understanding each other gave me a simple peace of mind. I hope that I can put it into practice and empower my husband instead of the opposite.
