Looking for Advice to Give to a Bride to Be

[PChef_ang]

So I am invited to a shower next month and I am to give advice on a 3x5 for the bride to be. I have been married for 15 years this year, together for almost 18 and I am just uncertain what to say to her, so I come to you all looking for some ideas.

Any help is appreciated!!

"Don't take everything too seriously"
"Learn to compromise"We have been married 12 1/2 yrs. We have some friends who've been married almost 2 years. Boy- they need to learn to lighten up and "pick their battles".

Spend time alone together. This is easy during the first few years, but harder once children become part of the picture. Never forget that you are a couple first.

You mean, besides, "DON'T DO IT!"?

Never take the little things for granted... doing the dishes, taking out the trash, bringing a soda home to you. It is the little things that make weathering the big things possible.
