SIDE THOUGHT...Marriage

My hubby and I have been married 8 years and have been together for 15 years.

In my opinion, a happy marriage is knowing each and loving each other as he/she is today, not as he/she was when you two got married. People evolve and change, you have to keep up with the change. That is why things like communication (not just telling each other information, but also knowing each other's thoughts, views, etc. on many different topics) and spending time together (being in the same room or same house does not count; I mean really spending time together to see each other's habits, mannerisms, attitudes, etc.).

This way, you will always know if this person continues to be the person that you want to be married to. After all, you have changed too.

Hmmm..good thought. Tough to do. My husband and I can hardly find two minutes to talk with our three kids. We got to find time but it is hard to find babysitting and we don't want to keep asking our parents. I like your idea about taking days off from work together to spend the day together in the other entry. We will have to try that.
