Marriage Retreat

You know you're not single anymore...when you and your wife go on a church marriage retreat...You've gone to every retreat in the world but this kind...You are humbled because marriage is the one area of the world you know you can never "master" but you do know you can always get better...You also know you are looking forward to having some time with your wife in almost a date setting...just with a hundred other couples tagging along!

Your Goal

You know you're not single anymore...when you spend a lot more time reflecting on your life than you ever did before...that you are always seeking to become a better husband and father each day...You know you will make mistakes, in fact, you've already made quite a few in the short time of your marriage, but you always try to be more sensitive, more caring, more loving each day than you were before...You realize as a father, your time with your children is limited until they are out from under your accountability so you make the most out of every moment you have with them...You just hope they will always remember the love, care, and safety you provided in their times with you.

Dr.'s Visits

You know you're not single anymore...when you've got someone to go to the doctor's office with you...Whether it is a minor check up or for any sickness, your wife is always making her schedule work around your appointments...In fact, you realize that she insists on the appointments when you are due for your regular check ups or when you would have just stayed at home during the sickness...You are appreciative that she cares so much for your well-being...and you hope to be there for her, too, when she needs medical care.
