Gary Chapman wrote the Four Seasons of Marriage and The Five Languages of Love, and now he has teamed up with Catherine Palmer to write a fiction series based on the Four Seasons of Marriage. It Happens Every Spring is the first of the series.
I really enjoyed this book even though I am a widow. The main story on this particular season is a couple whose children have left the nest, and the husband has a new career that has taken over his life, leaving the wife to sort out what her new role is in life and the marriage.
I related to this book because I too am trying to sort out my new “life” role. Being a single parent is certainly a different experience, and I am truly blessed to have such wonderful boys. I don’t know how equipped I would be to handle boys that were out-of-control.
Being a single homeowner is turning out to be a big challenge for me. Raymond and I did the best we could to keep the house in good repair between doctor and hospital visits and everyday life, but there were a lot of things that fell behind. So as I read about the remodeling of the home in the book I could dream about having all the repairs made in my home.
I’m looking forward to the next season in this series.
