Marriage

Having a Baby 

Many couples struggle with the decision altogether. They may wonder if having a baby will change life as they know it and be a decision that they look at later and regret. A baby will change everything, from how you feel to how you spend your time - but very few end up regretting the child.  >> more

 
An Equal Voice 

There are millions of women in this world, strong women, who have somehow through the perils of marriage and children lost their equal voice. It begins almost accidentally, as it is easier to just do things your self, not argue, and move on than it is to dig in your heels.  >> more

 
In-Laws 

Most people just admit to everyone in the world but their spouse that the in laws are just crazy! You may wonder how they your husband or wife came out so good being raised by such morons and feel delight in thinking that you had something to do with that.  >> more

 
Falling out of Love 

Falling out of love is as much a part of love as leaves are a part of autumn. Sometimes, married people may fall out of love with each other for weeks or months at a time cursing their marital decision and wondering what in the world they were thinking.  >> more

 
When a Spouse Gains Weight 

The wedding picture sits on the mantel. You and your life partner in the beautiful clothes with engaging smiles and preemptive giddy that says your life is perfect. The two of you may look like a picture from a bridal magazine and you can’t imagine that your life will ever be different.  >> more

 
Offering Marital Advice 

It always, no matter what or whom - takes two to fight. It also ALWAYS takes two to escalate a problem into one that makes Jerry Springer’s show look like a replica of the typical household. No matter how difficult it may be to keep your wealth of wisdom to yourself, do not pick sides.  >> more

 
Surviving the Tough Times of Marriage 

Let’s explore how honesty can help you survive the tough times of marriage first. Many couples are so full of secrets that they have a hard time ever truly relating. The secrets can be about how much money is on the credit card to who they had lunch with at work. Some of the secrets may be dark and devastating while others are simply just ways to make life easier.  >> more

 
I am your Wife not your Maid 

Is making a bed or putting dirty clothes in a hamper really that hard? Is it so difficult to throw things away in the trash rather than stuff them under the couch cushions until the 3rd of each month when the maid will lift each up to see what lies beneath?  >> more

 
The Importance of Girls Night Out 

The importance of girl’s night out goes beyond having fun. In fact, it is about not having to hide about being able to relax, be you and be accepted for just that. It is about not having anyone ask you anything, require assistance or touch you.  >> more

 
Updating Your Husband 

Updating your husband is one of those things that you might consider after years of watching them sitting on the couch with their hand down their pants, eating chips and popping a beer during the game.  >> more

 
Loving the One You’re With 

It is so easy to look at our neighbors, our friends, the people on TV, our extended families and compare ourselves to them. Everything may seem better, more fun and there is always someone who seems to be living exactly the life that we wish we had.  >> more

 
Trapped in a Marriage 

Finances, kids, family pressure and confusion can make any couple feel trapped in a marriage forever! Each day thereafter is a mixture of “if only” thoughts and regret.  >> more

 
Two Pairs of Pants in a Marriage 

A wolf pack has one pack leader, a company has one boss. The house should have just one leader, too, right? There should be just one person who “wears the pants” as we have become so fond of saying.  >> more

 
Getting Past the Honeymoon 

What makes the post-honeymoon phase different is that we become distracted. Maybe work has been taking up all of your time, maybe you have children with their own needs, or perhaps the novelty has simply worn away and you have found yourselves in a monotonous rhythm.  >> more

 
Agree to Disagree 

If we spend time pretending to agree to disagree just for the sake of making things nice again; we lose our voice, our confidence, and become hesitant and angry about the relationship.  >> more

picture of woman Raising a Strong Willed Child
The strong willed child presents himself early in life. They are usually the infant that can’t stand the bright lights of the stores, or turns beet red while waiting for a bottle to be warmed. When they become toddlers, they are experts at negotiating everything from how many more times they can go down the slide, to when they brush their teeth and bedtime. more
picture of woman Providing the Best for our Children
Providing the best for our children is definitely the goal. Nevertheless, parents should be reinforced with the idea that the best for their children always starts with them and is not reflected in the things they own or do; it is reflected in the joy that the family offers one another and the content feeling that stems from being happy together, rather than from all the other things in life! more
picture of woman Feeding a Baby Solids
In the life of a new parent there is nothing more exciting than that special time in their life when you can begin feeding your baby solids. For months you wondered if that high chair tucked in the corner of your kitchen would ever be used and imagined the peach stained lips and pursed lips of your infant as they got their first taste of real food (if you can call it that). more
