The Delightful Dozen

My wife, KayEm, and I recently celebrated our 12th Wedding Anniversary. During these 12 years, we have shared many experiences – some good, some bad – but through it all, we have persevered. God has blessed us with three beautiful children and a marriage based on mutual trust and admiration.

We were able to spend a kid-free weekend in Dallas, TX. I can’t remember the last time we were able to get away without the children, but I’m glad that we were afforded the opportunity. We relaxed and rekindled our relationship.

But more importantly, I got to reconnect with the woman of my dreams.

I doubt that I could ever love anyone the way I love KayEm. No one knows me better than she does. All the secrets of my heart are hers. I truly adore her.

She is my greatest blessing and my brightest light. She makes my life full of beautiful things each day.

She is my best friend, my companion, the one who makes life worth living.

She is my lover, my hot thang, the one who fuels my desire.

She my queen, my one true love, the one who fills my life with passion.

Her kiss warms my soul.

Stay Strong,mochadad-logo 75x75

    Great thought. My wife and I are about to celebrate 12 years as well. We are enjoying some time away from the kids as well. I am seeing that I have to purposely schedule dates and times that we can hang. Also, we have scheduled a coffee and conversation time each Friday. Although we don’t always make it, it is a time that we can chat or just chill. It works.

    I bet she loves you all the more after that post. :)

    To keep the spark in a marriage, you should never take each other for granted. Never treat your partner with disrespect. Never treat your partner in a way you wouldn’t treat a dear friend. Make sure you always make time for each other every day, even if it’s only 15 minutes where you have each other’s full attention. Be polite. Make sure you keep having FUN and laugh every day. Be each other’s best friend. Don’t forget to give compliments. Never stop surprising one another. If you have kids, remember that the best thing you can do for them is to have a solid, happy marriage, and any time you invest in making that happen is worth every minute.

    Congratulations on 12 years!

    Congrats! Sounds like life is very good within your household. To answer your question, we keep our marriage hot by sharing everything, laughing a lot, getting a month alone once a year while the kids are at Nanny’s, and by impromptu hotel stays in our own city.
