    5 Things I’ve learned being married young.

    5 Things I’ve learned being married young.

    First let me say my husband Ryan and I are best friends, we met in 2015 and have been together since. We have had our share of “rocky roads”, But in August of 2018 we got married. Ryan and I have been married for almost a year and we are expecting our first child in September, a baby boy at that. We are very excited to start another chapter in our book! So, with that being said I have started this blog to share the things I learn along the way being young. In hopes to reach out to other young families as well.

    1. EVERYONE WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY: 

      Getting married young, everyone will have something to say about it. Some positive, mostly negative. Things like, “they’ll never make it” , or “we’ll see how long THAT will  last”, as if anyone knows one thing about your relationship and what you’ve been through. But don’t worry, you know where you stand. You will laugh at those people, not alone but together.

    2. FORGIVE AND FORGET:

      Whatever happened in the past, it stays in the past. Never bring up something old in arguments, or just in general. It’s in the past for a reason, keep it there.

    3. ALWAYS DATE:

      Dating, spending time together is so important. Ryan and I have Sunday morning breakfasts at IHop and we’ll spend the day together. The weekends is what we have while we both work throughout the week. We also have movie nights. Getting caught up in the world can be very easy when married. There becomes a routine, keep the relationship young. Go on dates, always make time for each other.

    4. BALANCE:

      With dating being said, also find balance. Balance in a relationship is also important. They say it and its true, Saturdays is for the boys, and let it be a Saturday for the girls. Let him go hunting or fishing with his friends. Go out shopping or get pedicures with your girls. Having time apart is also as good as dating.

    5. PRAY:

      Pray for each other. Pray for each others strength, protection, and knowledge. Something not going as planned? Pray about it, study the word and pray over the situation. Be patient and understanding. God has a plan and his timing is always right. Have faith and courage.
