Changing...for the better

As anybody can tell you that has been married awhile...let's say 10 years...and has kids too, it is important to take the moments and treat each other special. Life is busy, going here and there, business is over the top, the kids, schedules - whew! Every home after awhile simple evolves into something that maybe the best intentioned hasn't wanted it to be.

So, how to preserve the most important aspects of your marriage and relationships? Make them a priority. Our boys are getting older so every moment is really precious. How I instruct, guide and encourage is really important to me and will more than likely be played out in the next generations as a model.

But where did I get out of the habit of opening the door for my wife?

Good question.

I am so glad that when we realize that we need to improve...we can.

Yesterday, I took Denise (aka Neesie) and snuck away for a little lunch at Olive Garden...what a wonderful memory just talking and laughing.

Life is good.
