Yesterday, up until about 4:15 or so, the worst part of my day had been when I drove away from the Taco Bell drive through having forgotten my change. I was out a little less than $3… no biggie. Then came some bad news at work, and my day collapsed. In the big picture, it […]

Kerri’s brother just headed to the Middle East earlier this week. He is leaving behind a wife and son. On the one hand it seems a bit cruel for him to depart only days before Christmas, but we know it is thus so that another soldier who has been away for twelve months or more […]

For the longest time, I said I could never forgive infidelity. That was my one breaking point. And I knew this from the time I was, I dunno, old enough to date? I’m sure it was one of the first things that Bald Man knew about me as it related to marriage. […]

Rumor has it I’m a bit of an encourager. So here are a few tips for encouraging your spouse off the top of my Bald Head:

(Pardon me while I take a slight diversion from our strict diet of marriage and nibble on a soupçon of parenting. Seeing as how Kerri and I are both married to one another and parents to the adorable brood pictured below, you can’t really have expected to get away from here without some mention of […]

While most of what Kerri and I share here will undoubtedly be stories from our life, we will from time to time be branching beyond our own borders. We know lots of married folks. Some have been married for a couple years, some for many decades. Over time we hope to share whatever wisdom and […]
