This past week in class we discussed culture within our families. I thought about the family that I grew up in and the words that I would use to describe it. Here are a few of what I came up with:
-traditional
-stable
-religious
-work
-conservative
-education oriented
As I thought back on when my husband and I went on our first date, we both felt an instant connection. It is interesting that I thought he was "normal" compared to other guys that I had dated. As I have thought about family culture, I have realized that our families have similar cultures. They value some of the same things in life. Some things are different between our two families, but that keeps things fun, right? It has been a matter of trial and error for my husband and I to establish our own family culture. Our culture is different from either one of the families that we grew up in, but we are our own family unit now and it has been nice to establish our own culture for our own family.
