Yup. We are also in the groove with the 5 love languages…so when we figured that whole thing out things got a lot more interesting. We connected on different levels and now we are rockin it on the friendship level and on the intimacy level. It doesn’t hurt that he is way hott either. Heck yes he is. But I would have to say that praying for one another together and apart throughout everyday keeps our marriage strong and healthy.

Thanks for coming to visit my blog :) I loved your other post for today about encouragement. As far as marriage, I have been married 13 years in July (is march too soon to say that?). My husband and I always believe in each other, NO MATTER WHAT.

I’m lovin’ these comments.

One thing someone shared with me many years ago is to never let anyone say anything nicer about your husband than you….even if you have to one-up them! Our guys need building up all the time!

Also, if you haven’t ever read “Love and Respect” by Emmerson Eggerichs, do it NOW. And for a little spice I dare you to read “Sheet Music” by Kevin Leman….my 19 yo daughter who just got married this July recommended it! LOL
