This is an entire blog devoted to marriage.
Well, maybe just to my marriage right now.
I can't give any pointers to a "successful marriage", I don't think I would be qualified.
Disclaimer: I DO NOT have a perfect marriage and I am not pretending to either.
My husband and I are best friends. I am not just saying that. We do everything together and I think I can speak for both of us when I say, we like it that way.
I understand that is not for everyone but it works for us.
I know marriage is tricky.
You are NOT always going to feel the same love for that person
that you did when you first started dating.
It isn't always passion and cuddles.
It is at times: snappy comments, eye rolls,walking away, and all that drama.
However, I feel it is important to always see the good.
I think I am extremely blessed to have a God fearing man, who always strives to be a better man.
I see that he wants to provide for his family, financially and emotionally.
Sometimes it's all too easy to focus on all the faults and harbor resentment.
But the best thing for your marriage is to look at the things you love.
I appreciate that he loves to learn new things because I do too.
I love that he is faithful, not only to me but to his family.
I love that he treats us with respect.
I love that he does things with his son but does not forget about his daughters.
He is a great role model for his children about working hard and not complaining.
We are far from perfect but we are perfect for each other!
We talk and try to learn from our mistakes. We fight too but we always try to work on that.
It is important to know when you were wrong and overreacted.
I have been trying to learn to put my feelings in a not so "naggy" way and just come out and say it in a way where he can understand and....sometimes he doesn't understand. That's ok because at the end we pray... we pray for our marriage and for our love to always grow for one another and we pray together. We love each other and there's no denying that. I feel that when you work through a tough situation..you don't love one another the same as the days you were dating, you love each other more than ever!
I LOVE MY MAN!
