How amazing is that! Seems fitting that it would fall on Thanksgiving because I am so thankful for them!
Thought I'd share some things that I have learned from my parents relationship, most of which my mom has told me:
- pick your battles; some things are worth fighting over, some things are just not
- you don't have to tell each other everything - this one surprised me, but she wasn't talking about keeping secrets, she was talking about protecting one another
- be best friends first, laugh, enjoy each other
- be a team; growing up my parents were like one and I never heard one say a single bad word about the other
And then there's the other stuff, compromise, support, not holding grudges and above all love.
What have your parents taught you about love and marriage?
