Never let anyone tell you that making marriage work is not a job. It is, and that job takes two people. Last week I may have been an eensy bit harsh on David with my vlog about him taking care of the kids when they were sick. This week I want to make up for it by telling you six things I love about him and how HE makes our marriage work.
In July David and I will have been married 23 years. Not all of those years have been easy. It takes sacrifice, compromise, and forgiveness for a successful marriage. From BOTH of you. Making marriage work does not mean 50/50. It means 100/100, but it is so, so worth it. I know that I’m blessed to be writing my story with David.
Happy Valentine’s day babe! I love you.
What are your tips for making marriage work?
Linking up with Mama Kat for her vlogging workshop.
You guys are such a sweet couple
As are you and Jeff.
That picture is greatness! Is it wrong that I was peering out the back window while you were driving and trying to recognize something? Also- I am impressed you can drive and record.. if I tried that, you would get to see a video of me having an accident. I am just not that good.
I think that may be one of my favorite photos of all time. I’m not sure how I did that. I felt like I never looked at the camera at all. It was actually pretty dumb, but I was running out of time.
Love!!!
I can’t watch videos – our connection here is too slow that it takes forever to load one. My husband and I laugh and laugh. I think that’s how we get through everything. Also, he is way more humble than I am.
I looooooove him.
Aw, so sweet! I LOVE that picture of you two.
That is an awesome vlog for Valentine’s Day! Your husband sounds so sweet. Although I watched the video about him staying home with your kids, and that was hilarious! My husband would have no idea what to do with sick kids.
It makes me really NERVOUS that you do these while you drive. With that being said, I think David is a heck of a lucky man to have such a great women by his side.
Okay, three things:
1. Were you driving and vlogging??? That’s one way to multi-task!
2. That picture is priceless.
3. “It takes sacrifice, compromise, and forgiveness for a successful marriage.” Yes. A thousand times over.
i love this. what a sweet, sweet tribute to your husband. and you’re driving. and did i mention i love this? and YES—marriage is a job, it is hard work. and it’s 110% from both people. I have to remind myself and I’m not always good about putting in my whole percentage.
This is so sweet. Y’all are great together and I always love the story about how you met too!
My best tip for marriage (at least these days) is Communication is Key!!
If you were mean last week, you more than made up for it this week. Happy Valentine’s day.
This is so sweet, I hope he loves it. That is such a great picture of you guys and 23 years? Amazing.
Ohmyword, LOVE this! xo
You are a beautiful couple.
I love that photo too.
Happy Valentine’s Day too.

My hubby is my rock too. He observes while I tend to react.
