HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHO TO MARRY? (written by kids)
You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips and dip coming.-- Alan, age 10
No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with...-- Kristen, age 10

Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough...-- Lynnette, age 8 ( isn't she a treasure? )

My Dad and my Mom were married 28 years. Joyfully. After Mom died suddenly, Dad remarried, about 3 years later. He and my Step-mom, a kind and loving Christian woman, a widow herself with 3 boys and a girl, have been married about that long themselves.
Someone asked him his secret, two good marriages, both long term. He said
"We share love and faith. The kids are just a gift. We occasionally have a strong difference of opinion though, but that only continues until one of us realizes I was wrong." :-)
I had to laugh about the child who talked about if we should be married or single. My poor wife is forever making sure that I am on the right path and putting up with me. She is my angel who watches over me.
These were great! I went to a speech our Lt. Govenor gave and he listed several answers that his grandson gave that were very similar and possesed the humility and honesty that children have when you ask them something.
Brigid, I've used a similar line with my wife, and she laughs. And laughs. And laughs. (sigh)
Lucky, thanks. My daughters taught me I should never ask a question unless I really, really want to know the answer!
