Another rainy week.

 I am now approaching what I call my favorite period of the week. That is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

These days I spend a concentrated amount of time with my family, and sometimes my friends as well. Friday and Saturday nights are very important as Yogita and I spend time together. This is a time where we learn more about each other communicate, and make plans. Sunday is super special, as I can spend more time with our boys together with Yogita. We serve in the field service together, go to our meetings, and usually eat one or sometimes two meals together. This I feel is like a tiny taste of the new world. 

I no longer "live for the weekend". Instead, I enjoy each day. On Mondays and usually Tuesdays we have our family worship. This is a combined nearly 3 hours I spend with our boys. Part of me wants to go back to 3 days of family worship. But that would be too much. If my job had different requirements it would be possible. We could have 3 short family worship sessions. For right now the boys are still having their own bible studies and parts on the mid-week program. 

Wednesday, I love walks or taking an evening nap after dinner with Yogita and also talking with the boys. I usually try to make sure my work is set up and done so that at home I am not stressing about something. 

Thursdays I really enjoy it as well. We drive home together from the mid-week meeting, and sometimes Yogita and I walk or watch a movie together while the boys play games with their friends. On Fridays my work schedule is easy to prep for so I can focus a bit more on personal matters like daily bible reading. 

Then in the evening, I meet Yogita and we spend time together. Strange how people we would spend time with before would try to guilt trip me for spending time with my wife or sons. Now I can see major improvements at home. I can truly say I am enjoying my life more as a Husband, Father, and family head than I have in my entire life. Next week Wednesday we will spend even more time as a family in Jehovah's service. I am looking forward to that.
