I was close to finishing when I got married and started working full-time, 50 hours a week.  Because of this full-time job, I flunked all my classes and had to withdraw from graduate school.  But I am blessed with a wife and three children.  I have enjoyed reading about and learning about marriage since before I got married.  I have read from many books on marriage, gone to a marriage conference (yes, with my wife), and four marriage cruises that all had special speakers on marriage.  I have been married for 23 years to that pretty girl in the picture above with me.  That photo was taken at Hanauma Bay in Hawaii.  I decided to add a photo collage below that my daughter gave me.  I think you will find the blog interesting if you read a page or two.
