We've learnt about the Four Seasons of Marriage at the MGS.
In Spring, the couple have no children. The greatest need is for mutual acceptance.
Summer is marked by a family with children under 12 years. This is a busy and hectic period and couples have to make time for the marriage relationship. The couple should have time alone with just each other.
Autumn is when the children become teens. This period is changeable and sometimes stormy. The couple should support and encourage each other.
Winter lasts the longest of all the seasons. The couple is usually less active and have more time together. Good communication is important and a common interest should be developed (a sport or travelling etc).
Each season brings with it a different set of challenges. As long as we are committed to overcoming the challenges together, the marriage will definitely be strengthened and blossom. =)
