Our goal this month is to improve our skills at asking open ended questions, so that we can get to know one another over time. This week we are getting to know each other's daily experience in the present. Here are some questions to get you started:

Is our child like anyone in your family? Who?
How do you think we could have more fun in our life?
Who are your best allies and close friends right now? How have they or you changed?
How have your friendships changed lately? Have you grown closer to some friends? More distant from others?
Who in your life is most stressful for you? Why?
What do you need right now in a friend?
What things are missing in your life?
Have your goals in life changed recently?
What are some of your life dreams now?
What would you change about our finances right now?
What kind of year has this been for you? Tell me the story of your proudest moment.
How do you feel about your family right now? Have these feelings changed lately?
How do you feel about work right now?
How are you feeling about being a mother/father?
What do you find exciting in life right now?
What is one way you would like to change?
