I am feeling pretty blue right now. Not knowing if my marriage will last. I think I would be much happier starting over. I read blogs about everyone's loving husbands and seemingly perfect families and it makes me sad. Why don't I have that? I can't write such flowery, beautiful things about my husband and our life. My kids are great! My oldest son, Michael is 15 taking Driver's Ed. and becoming a nice young man. He just adores his baby sister, Katelyn and is generally a good brother to Kelli and Matthew. Kelli, my second oldest, is fun loving, bright, kind and happy go lucky. Matthew is warm hearted, always needs a hug and kiss goodbye, smart and always helpful. Katelyn, my 2 year old is funny, mischievious, and quite a little character!

Lori,
I'd like to encourage you to persevere. Trust me, I know how discouraging and depressing it can be to live in an empty and loveless marriage. It is not as it should be.
But your children will learn something very precious by you refusing to give up. And if you and your husband are willing to invest the time and energy, your marriage can be restored to a beautiful and blessed relationship.
In the meantime, while you wait and pray, focus on the things God is asking you to do as wife - the things He wants you to do to bless your husband. And allow your Heavenly Bridegroom to fill your heart with all the love you will ever need. One you are full in His love, you'll find that you don't "need" your husband's love in the same way. It will be so freeing!
If you want to talk more, feel free to email me (or we can even chat on the phone). I will be praying diligently.
In love,
Tyler
P.S. Your kids are beautiful.
