That was great! Boy, I wish my husband had done that once when we were at each other's throats! If she is willing to go with you to a Retrouvaille weekend, they could really help you continue to have the kind of marriage you want. Look at the website, www.helpourmarriage.org. They explain the 4 stages of marriage, and how the misery stage is normal. But you can get beyond it if you learn the skills that they teach you. A good marriage is not just luck, it is the result of effort! My husband and I did our Retro weekend 3 years ago, and it was the best thing we ever did for ourselves and our family!
