My anniversary is today so I decided to do my quotes on marriage:

Newlyweds become oldyweds, and oldyweds are the reasons that families work. ~Author Unknown

Success in marriage does not come merely through finding the right mate, but through being the right mate. ~Barnett R. Brickner

A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person. ~Mignon McLaughlin, The Second Neurotic’s Notebook, 1966

In the opinion of the world, marriage ends all, as it does in a comedy. The truth is precisely the opposite: it begins all. ~Anne Sophie Swetchine

In a time when nothing is more certain than change, the commitment of two people to one another has become difficult and rare. Yet, by its scarcity, the beauty and value of this exchange have only been enhanced. ~Robert Sexton

Don’t marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can’t live without. ~James C. Dobson

The highest happiness on earth is marriage. ~William Lyon Phelps

So how long have you all been married?? Today is 6 years for us

  10. ~Mrs Sandy~ says:

    I have been married 20 years:) We married way to young at age 16& 18. However, we've had many ups and downs but through it all, God has been with us.
    Everyone says marriage takes two, but I disagree. Marriages that last must have three(God, man, and woman).
    Great quotes!!!! Thanks so much for sharing.
    Hugs, Sandy
