We’ve been married for 5 and a half years and we both agree that the last year has been a game changer. We had our first baby one year ago and after the first three months of parenthood realized that we were going to have to put in more effort than we ever have before in order to put our marriage first and keep growing together. We did a 31 day intimacy challenge back in July that snapped us out of our new parent funk and helped us reclaim the romance in our relationship. We both have had individual counseling and are about to start marriage counseling which we are so excited about! Our marriage is in the healthiest place it’s ever been and yet we want to keep growing and look at counseling as another way to nurture our relationship. We truly enjoy marriage and love putting in the effort because we have seen first hand how life giving a thriving marriage can be. We date each other (even if that means we are having a chill night at home with our daughter). It’s the attitude you bring to date night and the willingness to show up for your spouse that matters. We are in the thick of being new parents but feel more in love than ever and are experiencing the fruit of doing the work that needed to be done in our communication and connection. I hope this encourages you and reminds you that it’s never too late to start pursuing your spouse again. It doesn’t happen over night but it’s the best investment you could ever make. 🤍 What are some ways you invest in your relationship? Maybe we can all learn something from each other. 🫶🏻 #beating50percent #healthymarriage #dateyourspouse #marriageadvice #marriagematters #marriedlife #intentionalmarriage #marriedtiktok #marriagetok
