But...Our Lord knew that stubborn girls like me might need some advice when he said "Likewise, that the older women...teach the younger women to love their husbands..." (Titus 2:3-5) and a whole list of sometimes very challenging aspects of a woman's journey here on earth...
I have had some wonderful women to teach me through example, friendship, and love in my over 11 years of marriage...yet I also remember some times that I felt totally lost! In those times, I would turn to older women who would reveal themselves through print.
This is one of these...written by Theda Hlavka, wife of 30 years and speaker at FamilyLife...recommended by Dennis Rainey.
If you think you will enjoy...please leave a comment and I will pick a winner next weekend...

As someone who has been married for almost 42 years (we were 12), let me say that the very best advice I ever gave or was given is to be as nice to our husbands as we are to strangers. Now ask me if I follow it.
Okay, I'll say TRY to be...
Oh, and pick a good guy to begin with. Character counts. Ask Sandra Bullock, Elizabeth Edwards, etc.
Thank God for good husbands!
Hello! I just found your blog recently and I'm really enjoying it! I've been married for just over one year. My husband and I have done more learning and growing than I ever could have imagined in the past year. And I know that will continue for the rest of our lives. I would love to read this book. I think I'll add it to my Amazon wish list. Thanks for the great blog!
