It is a blessing to be with this woman. <br /><br />Once, before we were married, during my college graduation party, we kissed each other, and my great aunt Anna saw this and said, "Don't ever stop doing that." At another time, she said, "Always respect each other."<br /><br />Melissa and I say "I love you" throughout the day. In fact, I usually lose count. And we mean it each time. <br /><br />Is marriage easy. No way. Do we get on each other's nerves sometimes. You bet! <br /><br />But more and more we come to know that even the stuff that gets on each other's nerves is the good stuff, the stuff that makes it real and good, and right.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08757853819879109451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14168956.post-27146357061475050072015-01-02T18:38:44.347-05:002015-01-02T18:38:44.347-05:00Good post. I have heard of Dr. Chapman's book....Good post. I have heard of Dr. Chapman's book. My bride and I are quite different. I think the key to our 37 years of marriage is communication, and not trying to change each other. We have overcome some significant challenges in our relationship. It has gotten stronger because of those challenges, not in spite of them. ndspinellihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446291993043775612noreply@blogger.com
