Hi Wifessionals readers!
I'm Shannon, and you'll usually find me over at Imperfectly Perfect Grace.
First of all, is Kaitlyn not the sweetest and cutest girl! I mean seriously, her beautiful smile makes me smile! You can see through her eyes that she has such a great heart!
When I received her email asking if some of us would be interested in sharing with her readers, I knew I really would love the opportunity to do so.
I felt I wanted to share with you a little something on a subject that is so close to my heart.
MARRIAGE
I think a large group of you are in that new, fun and exciting newlywed phase of life, and wow what I great time that is!
I love reading blogs and posts from ladies who are living and enjoying such a special and new time of life and love.
Technically I'm no longer a newlywed.
My husband and I just celebrated our 6th wedding anniversary! We still hug and kiss a lot, and he's forever chasing me around the house and telling silly stories.
We genuinely enjoy one another.
{celebrating 6 years}
We protect our friendship
The idea of protecting and keeping your friendship strong could possibly sound silly or like a "duh" to a newlywed, but let me just say as someone who has been married for 6 years there will be times when life gets interesting, stuff happens and the whole friendship concept can fly out the window as we do our best to get through whatever life is throwing at us.
It is a conscious choice you must make to consistently protect and build your friendship with your husband. To not let life, a situation or a circumstance, come into your marriage and and work to break down the bond of friendship.
It's your foundation.
We married our husbands because they were our buddies, our best friends!
Through life we must always remember this.
As our marriage evolves with time, new jobs will most likely happen, many of you will start your families, and the atmosphere of your marriage will change.
This is another new and amazing phase of life, but when this phase begins it is even more important to remember to hold strong to our friendship with our spouse -
to grow it and protect it.
Let's always do our best to keep the most important thing,THE RELATIONSHIP
