Good afternoon: 

While I was not successful in my own marriage in avoiding infidelities, I hope to help my sons keep their marriage strong, loving and fun. I bought 2 copies of each of your books: "Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" and "Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage". Each couple was given their books 3 years ago for absolutely no reason. I wrapped them in pretty paper, tied ribbons around them, wrote cards specifically to each couple, prayed they would use them. 

I have heard from each couple independently. Their marriages are stronger. Their friendships better and their personal intimate relationships are thriving. They work together to support their families monetarily and spiritually. Their children are home-schooled or in private school. They spend time with their families - have meals together and do fun things - not always expensive things, but good old-fashioned fun like riding bikes, going to the parks for picnics and play. Dad is there along with Mom. They go to church together and come home together. Life isn't always perfect, but they remain balanced and full of intent to continue their lives together to rocking chair stage. 

Thanks for all that you do - the encouragement you give - the knock to the head we sometimes need. I remain in awe of your ability to talk to someone for a short period of time and read the situation unerringly. I KNOW you're going to go one way sometimes and then much to my surprise I don't know a thing! You turn down a different path that is absolutely spot on, while I am awed at your wisdom. Keep writing - I'll keep buying!! Thank you for your support to our Military families. 

Kind regards, 

Toni
