MarriageUP

10,876 days. Wonderful days, miserable days, happy days, exhausting days, amazing days, so so so many days of marriage. These are my days, more good than bad, the days I have spent with the boy I love. 

We have had our share of struggles, but we believe in fighting for our marriage. This study, found that two-thirds of couples in crisis were happily married five years later, when they chose to stay married. This study and our life experience validate our strong belief that most often, you just have to hang in there through the hard and you will find your bliss again. 

I remember crying my eyes out on our tenth anniversary, as my husband and I danced around the living room of our little fixer-upper, a stolen early morning moment, while our children slept. I felt my heart explode with gratitude that we had hung in there through some really hard stuff.

 Great marriages require hanging in there. They require laughter and listening. They require you to learn and grow and do better. They require all of us to MarriageUP.
