23 Years And Still Giggling
01/05/2016

Dr. Laura:

I started listening to you six months ago, when our new car came with a SiriusXM subscription.  My husband and I are an exception to a well-known rule.  We lived across the street from one another, and have been in love since we were 13.  Yes, I said "in love."

Fast forward 23 years, and we are still in love, but as we were driving last night, we said to one another how the past six months have been "different" - different GOOD - and we both agreed it was thanks to you!  We weren't having any problems, but I think subconsciously I have made changes and put more effort in the marriage by listening to you.  In the mix of children, work and family, we both put our marriage last, but now we make it our number one priority.  Simple things like taking a walk or going to get coffee together - just making time for US.  I love him more today than ever.

One bit of advice you've given that I have not had to use quite yet (but it's in my back pocket when I need it) and my husband giggles every time he hears you say it is to "flash your husband!"  It's the best advice out there!

Truly my husband's girlfriend and my kid's mom,

Julie
