Just a quick piece of advice on marriage and relationships. When you bring children into your home, everything changes. This is true whether you have one child or enough children to start your own TLC special. The time and energy you used to spend on showing your affections is now diverted to other things like burping the baby, helping with homework, or playing dress-up. Leah is now up to at least three costume changes a day.
With all this time spent on your child/children it's hard to keep the spark of romance alive in your relationship. After a long day of giving my best material to the kids, I don't have the energy to do nice things for my wife (like farting in the other room). But in a relationship, it's important that you take time to do the small things. So put the lid back down, hang the toilet paper the right way, and poop with the door closed. But most importantly, everyday before she goes to work, be sure to say something sweet like, "I love you" or "I hope you're not pregnant". Stay strong, marriage today is tough.
Good advice Lou!
