How many times have you seen a couple who are two complete entities rather than a couple! I was taught when you marry two become one. So why is it that in many marriages each person has their own set of friends and seem to always be doing their own thing?
Coming from a marriage where all and I mean all things are shared it is hard for me to comprehend. In my house I do the majority of the cleaning each week and my husband then does the cooking, if I need help he helps me and I in turn help him.
When it comes to the children we are very cautious to make sure we do not overturn the other ones decisions and if we disagree with each other we try to discuss it out side of hearing range of the kids. We are not always successful nor do we have a perfect marriage but we decided when we got married that family comes first that is right after GOD!
This strategy has worked very good for us over the years. In fact my husband and I are both co-owners of a very successful business in our home that has allowed us much time together and with our wonderful children.
Both my husband and I come from parents who divorced. He at a very young age and me well I was in my twenties, but neither scenario was easy for us. We decided like many couples that we were not going to carry on the tradition or trend of divorce in our family. “The Buck Stops Here”, so to speak. We are now happily married now for over 15 years and can only see life getting better from here on out.
How ever that was not the case for my mother-in-law who married a second time soon after her first divorce and after 18 years of marriage to her second husband found her self yet again in the middle of another unfortunate divorce. The blessing this time around is that there were no young children involved.
This made her divorce proceedings much simpler and less costly, and after only a few months and an amicable parting of ways she is now on the road to a new life. Thanks to the great staff at Savaggio, Garibian, LLC. She is able to now move closer to us and spend as much time as possible making up of all the years she lost as a mother and now as a grand mother. We are happy she is coming I look forward to getting to know my “Mother”! As she puts it “It’s time to put my family first!”
