Have you read The Temperament God Gave You?...Rosie! Have you read The Temperament God Gave You? My husband and I read through it during a car ride once and I would easily put in on my top ten for most helpful books I've read (in improving our marriage). My husband is a full blown choleric and I'm predominantly melancholic. That books is crazy helpful in giving specific tips as I imagine the kid version is as well which is why I will now be reading it too (thanks!). For example, my personality type thinks a lot and we get overwhelmed because we do things to great depth. The book suggested to Paul that he help me take just the 1st step. Sounds simple but it helped us immensely. And instead of viewing my husband as pushy, forceful, or a steamroller (I hate to say it...but I felt that way sometimes), I can know see him as the quickly energetic and passionate leader that he is. Honestly, the book has helped me respect and love others much more easily for who they are. Wow. I've said way too much and I've barely scraped the iceberg. Awesome book!Ashley Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15960809269667040621noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023711147176297629.post-86626829283540804912013-09-11T22:12:41.889-04:002013-09-11T22:12:41.889-04:00I know, I totally want more!

I can't wait til Michael is old enough to appreciate it. <br /><br />And #5!! I love all of the Bennett's temperament books; this is the only one I haven't read through yet. I have it on my Kindle. I was a little afraid I'd start trying to figure out Michael's temperament at 4 months old, so I put it aside for a bit. ;) Maybe I should pick it back up again. (Also, in case I had ANY doubts I was a melancholic/choleric ... this particular book+childhood memories put them to rest. lol.)Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699055172049185864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4023711147176297629.post-63656759581501187972013-09-11T19:58:11.820-04:002013-09-11T19:58:11.820-04:00I loved #5 but want to re-read it again.
