Dr. Laura -
My mother has listened to you for many years, and I have just recently started listening to your program. My mother introduced me to "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands". I read it, loved it, and am currently reading your book "The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage".
I am 41 years old, and have been married to my husband for 19 years. While I would say that overall my marriage has been a good one (not without some troubles, though) I have to tell you how much your books have opened my eyes as to how to be a better wife and make my husband happier. While your book helped show me things I was doing right as a wife (i.e. not complaining about his time with the boys, like most of my married girlfriends do -- and here I thought I was the outcast!) it also showed me areas where I needed to improve (i.e. learn to be his girlfriend again). He has 2 children from a previous marriage and we have 2 together (3 are young adults now, and the youngest is 16).
I have begun reading some parts of your books to my husband and he is in total agreement with what you have to say. I have yet to read something that he disagrees with. So, I just wanted to send you a BIG THANK YOU because your books have helped me to put my priorities in order.
A new avid listener/fan,
Raquel
