The best gift you can give your children....


....is a good marriage. This truth hit me this weekend as I was sitting in church. Paige was sitting between the two of us and she always does this but it never occured to me why until that moment. It is so important to her that her father and I love each other that she finds comfort in having us hold hands. She will take my hand and put it in Dave's hand and then place them in her lap and hold them with her hands. It comforts her.
Dave and I have a great marriage. We are not afraid to show affection to each other in front of our children (totally in a G-rated way), we say "I love you" to each other and to them at least a hundred times a day and yet Paige still needs this...it is THAT important.
