Disheartening.....

I am a very strong woman.  But, something very disheartening happened to me last week.  I am still in shock and need MY time to heal.  God is working with me through this.  He is always there for me....and, He is by my side now.  He holds my family in His capable hands always.  I am so very blessed to have such a wonderful, protective husband who always "has my back".  God gave me this man just for situations like the one we find ourselves in now.  My children have been so very supportive as well....as have been my best friends, Julie, Carol & Cindy.  Thanks to Mama & Robert, too.  I am listening God.  Reveal Your will to me.  Until You do, I am waiting.  Thank you for all you've blessed me with thusfar.

Question of the day: What is your take on grown adults with children of their own moving back home with their parents?  The moocher types.  The ones that are too lazy to earn a living on their own and too lazy to strive for a better tomorrow for their own children.  Comment away!!

Do's of Marriage

*Verbally share the events of your day
*Renew statements regarding the relationship: "I love you", "You are special to me" or "I missed you today".
* Touch each other in meaningful ways: hugs, kisses, holding hands, sitting close
*Remember, committment leads to communication; communication stimulates forgiveness; and forgiveness offers grace, which develops into intimacy
*Show apprecation for something your partners has done: say "Thank you"
*Take turns asking and explaining when you have misunderstood each other
*Share hopes and dreams: a basic key to a close relationship
*Be a good listener: a response isn't always necessary

100 Ways & 100 Days To Love Your Spouse, Day 24

100 WAYS & 100 DAYS TO LOVE YOUR SPOUSE, DAY 24

Find ways to show your spouse that you need him.  By nature, women are nurturers.  Men are "do-ers".  Men need to do things for you.  They need to feel needed by you.  Darrell pretty much has a daily "honey do list".  I can always find something that I NEED him to do for me.  And, he graciously obliges.  So, go ahead girls.....dish out your "honey do list"......he'll love it!

100 Ways and 100 Days to Love Your Spouse: Day 23

Express how much you appreciate him for working so hard to support the family.  Darrell is the hardest working man I have ever met.  He is the best provider.  I so admire his tenacity in this area.  His wife & family mean the world to him.  He wants us to possess not only the necessities in life, but also luxury comforts that others may not be so fortunate to enjoy.  He never complains about anything.  He "goes with the flow" and content with the happiness he brings to us on a daily basis.  So, I implore you (wives) to show praise to your hard-working husbands who delve into the daily grind just to bring happiness to your family.

Darrell Mathew Fulcher (the love of my life)
