Marriage Takes Two
10/29/2013

Hello Dr Laura....

I am constantly asked how my husband and I have stayed so happy for so long. I usually respond that we are each other's best friends, we show the other respect, and I read the books written by Dr. Laura. It is true that while I spend my life building others up, my husband is the main recipient.

We have two grown daughters both with teaching degrees and two wonderful grandchildren. WE are a shining example of what you would call a break in the cycle. My mom was a single mother - I loved and respected her, but I never knew my father.  My husband's mother was married MANY times.  Somehow we both knew that when we were married we wanted it to be forever and we wanted our children to have what we both truly never had - the full family unit.

It is sad how many people are lost all of their lives. Marriage takes two, and I am so truly blessed to have him as mine. There is no room for jealousy and we both enjoy being the couple all others strive to be. Thank you for your writing, your show and everything you contribute to this world!!!!
