I don't think any marriage is perfect, but having a grateful heart sure makes a marriage easier!!

I have to remind myself of this many times when it looks like the grass is greener on the other side. Each time I hear of something like this, it is a reminder to hold dear to what we have because it is a lot to be thankful for. <br />hopefully they can find peace through everything.

It makes it easy to get out. But like I said, I've been there. I can only look to the future & learn from the past.

I love that you're real and transparent on your blog. You are such a beautiful soul.<br />I, too, am thankful for my husband and son. They make my life so sweet. More tiring, yes, more work, yes, more responsibility, yes, but so so so much more sweet. <br />This is a wonderful reminder to never compare, especially when you just see the highlights on someone's facebook page or blog. Hoping your friend is doing ok! xoxoAndrea {kerubo mama}https://www.blogger.com/profile/11735068918123555136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2879249761854843465.post-15052600038952992992012-10-18T08:41:33.241-07:002012-10-18T08:41:33.241-07:00Ahhh - so true.

I am blessed every single day to be married to my amazing husband.<br /><br />And as for social media, I always try to remember that it's like comparing your life to someone's highlight reel.
