Marriage with Kids

If you know anything about me, you know that being an amazing mom
and super wife are extremely important in my life.
 
I want to raise my children to be kind, smart, responsible human beings full of love and happy memories. I want to have a marriage my kids can look up to.
 
Wen and I dream of sitting on the porch in rocking chairs together holding hands as some of our final memories. We are planning our future for after the kids are grown. That requires keeping us together and happy through the tough years of young kids.
 
We are working on keeping the us alive while raising the little ones. It isn't so easy sometimes.
 
Kids take a lot out of you. As a mom, I feel the guilt if I spend too much time with one person and not enough with the other. I worry about if I am focusing too much on the kids or too much on Wen. I feel exhausted from everyday life.
 
 I know I'm not alone in this.
 
I know kids need to see their mom and dad working on their marriage;
but, knowing doesn't make it easy. Right?
 
Anyone still with me? Feel the same? 
 
Okay, follow me here.
 
I follow this amazing Instagram account called Marriage365.
 
Marriage365 is a married couple who talk about a lot of marriage issues and marriage with kids. There is no instruction manual when you get married and have kids but I know families search for good information to help them make life decisions.
 
 Marriage365 has written a few ebooks and even put on webcasts in which they chat about this stuff. 
 
Check them out.
 
 
As this adorable pic states, their Secrets to a Healthy Marriage with Kids webcast is on May 18th. You should check it out. You can watch it live or watch a recording of it, whichever you prefer. Just click my link to find the info on the webcasts and learn more from Casey and Meygan. 
 
The Marriage365 Instagram account is pretty fun to follow as well.
