However, when Athena and I work on one together it is much more fun and a lot less frustrating. I know of couples where it is a weekly ritual to get the Sunday paper and work out the crossword puzzle together over coffee and pastries. There is tremendous satisfaction with tasks completed together. It binds a couple. All too often he reads the sports section and she reads the home section and little is read together.
Nothing is shared.
Begin a new tradition in your family to start the week off right by sharing the Sunday paper and maybe doing a crossword puzzle together.
