"I'm Happily Married", that's what they say

Had a baby girl in December :) Being a parent is an amazing experience!! Loving it!


Back to the topic,ever hear people say "I am happily married"? What is happily married? Does it mean they are happy every day? That just sounds down right boring and freaky,in a scary way :))


Nothing is impossible, even the word possible says ImPossible. I came to the conclusion that it can be a happy marriage if both partners put in some daily deliberate actions or what I'd like to call Good Marriage Habits. 


♥♥ Pray together.
♥ Compliment your spouse daily...
♥ Change yourself instead of trying to change your spouse.
♥ Don’t take each other for granted.
♥ Forgive often
♥ Focus on each others strengths
♥ Respect each other
♥ Walk hand in hand or side by side
♥ Trust each other
♥ Focus more on what your partner does right than what he or she does wrong
♥ Hug each other as soon as you see each other after work
♥ Greet each other when u wake up and before you sleep regardless of how you feel
♥ Be proud to be seen with your partner
♥ Be One Another’s Biggest Fan
♥ Make Time for One Another
♥ Help One Another Grow

♥ Be kind to one another
♥ Drop grudges
♥ Forget about the past and move on
♥ Express gratitude regularly "thank you my love :)"
 Support each other :)))
♥ Let it go.Whether you're right or not is never the issue.The real issue is if you're going to allow the issue to pass
♥ Put each others needs first.
♥ There's no getting around it,men are known for their egos.Instead of fighting it,work with it, compliment them :)
♥ A husband and wife should always honor one another in a marriage.

♥ Be grateful
♥ Whenever u feel that anger boiling or that voice wanting to lash out,say this mantra to urself:"I'm better than that."

♥ Stop trying to control your partner.
♥ A couple need to do the same things at home that they do at work.Your partner's the million-dollar client,she/he walks out the door,the business is closed.
