I love reading your blogs Debi and Tom, I may not be outwardly religious (its still there inside though) but your views on marrige really do get to the heart of it, and make it easy to learn the knowledge. Some people say you have to work at relationships. I say, follow the great advice from the romantic vinyard and marrige will never seem like hard work. I’m feel blessed to have found your site. Thank you so much for all your posts, that either tell me I’m doing it right, remind me to keep doing the right things or show me things from a different angle. xx
Gina, you are so kind to encourage us this way. We’re so grateful to have met you as well. Let’s keep in touch after the UBC. Thank you so much!!
Tom and Debi
