Okay, I did my homework and realized that I have some things to work on. To be expected, right. That is why I am taking the class. Then I get to class and realize that I have A LOT to work on. A bit frustrating.
I do try to control Matt to get my way. I do always give my opinion. I do tell him "I told you so" when he is wrong. I do think that I am right most of the time. Could there be anything else. I realized that I am a pretty selfish person, at least with Matt. I cannot believe that I haven't seen this sooner. I actually though that I was helping him. Wow!
Starting now I am jumping off my self made pedestal and practicing zipping my lip. Next time I take this class I want to say. Wow, this IS me!

kati,
this is the lesson that last time i took this class really got me.
please don't be too hard on yourself. we all have work to do, but just by you recognizing it is a huge accomplishiment!!! you are an amazing wife!
last class, i went home in tears after this lesson. but the testimony is that it changed my whole life! don't be discouraged by conviction- if we obey Him, it only makes life much more than we can make it for ourselves.
i had to get rid of my pedestal, too. maybe being firstborns is part of our problem!!!! :)
I took the class last time, and am still reminded of how wrong I have it.(in different ways) It's a constant battle between you and the devil, but by seeing the truth we can get this right!
But when we get it right, the victory is so worth it!
