    SBP – " “Husband Using His Vacation Days for Himself” Season 5, Episode 241

    Welcome to Silently Blessed Podcast, hosted by Bernard "Jesse" and Luemisher "MiMi" James, where we discuss Family, Finances, and Marriage. We call it FFM. Stick around, and prayerfully, you will catch nuggets that YOU can use in your family, finances, and marriage. The topic for today is “Husband Using His Vacation Days for Himself.” We will unpack another Reddit post. A wife complains that her husband is using his vacation time for himself and his sport. It is never good when a husband or spouse becomes selfish after the other half gives permission for the sport he loves. Remember, there is nothing wrong with having time to yourself when you are married with children. Just be considerate of your family at all times, especially when there are two special needs children to care for. Additionally, we applaud the couple for still being married with special needs children because that is a hurdle that everyone in the family has to endure. To God be the GLORY!
