I haven’t read any of the Love Language books but I am interested. I think this is something I’d like to be aware of as my son gets older. He is only 6 mos old so we’ll settle for physical touch (i.e. hugs, kisses, cuddles, etc.) as his primary love language for now.

I’ve heard of this book before and it sounds interesting. I’ve been thinking about these 5 love languages since I read this post. I know which work for my kids without asking, but I have asked them how they know I love them and their answers surprise me anyway. My little boy said he knows I love him because I tell him, which is true, but he barely responds when I say it, so it’s good to get that reassurance that saying it does make him feel loved. Anyway, thanks for posting this and fleshing it out a bit. If I could find this at the library, I would totally check this book out!

Hey Melanie, have you read the Man Nurse Diaries? His post today on cosleeping is awesome. I thought you might like to check it out!

I also love this post you did. I have read this book, and should dust it off and read it again–I think you’re onto something here!! Last time I read it my kids were all smaller than 5 so I simply had to apply all the languages, but now two of them are older than 5 so I could go back and figure out which love languages they are!! thanks for the reminder!!
