Love and Connection Connection is not a mood that arrives on its own, it is built out of small ordinary moments most tired parents skip. These pages are about warmth, appreciation, and attention, and how to put them back into a week that has no room left in it. - [The Problem With the 5 Love Languages, and the 3 I Coach Instead](/the-problem-with-5-love-languages) You both took the quiz and you are both still lonely.
