My name is Ann Marie, but you can call me Ree for short. I am a wife to a wonderful man who is 13 years younger than me and a mom to 4 great and wonderful children. My two daughters are twins and they are 15, they are both so funny, smart, and talented. My first son is 9 and he loves to play video games (and he's really good at them), and he's a pretty smart cookie too, plays different sports and is a funny kid. My youngest boy and my hubby's first child is now 10 months old and is a little angel. He is a happy baby, many smiles and really is interested in everything right now, and oh yeah, he loves to eat!
My name is Brandy and I am a work at home mother of two currently prego with my third. My oldest is a girl age 5 who attends half day kindergarten, and my youngest is age 20 months. My daughter Kiara is from a previous relationship and Aedan is mine & hubbys' first child together. I am prego with our second child who will be a boy and is due August 18, 2008.
I enjoy doing all sorts of things. I attend DeVry University online full time working for my Bachelors in Business Administration with concentrations in Accounting (will be done in 1 year and a half give or take a few months). I work part time for DiamondCreek Candles and am always up for educating others about products, consultant info or wholesale account info. I can also do fundraisers and would love to get involved in donating some candles to charity events!
My husband and I have been together for about 2 years and married for 1 year on May 19, 2008. We own a house with 6 acres of land, two car garage and need to add a room as we only have 2 bedrooms currently! We have always been good about talking things out, never argue, have occasionally had a bicker match (what I call it - bascially me being prego grumpy and bickering by myself - or mumbling lol)....but other than that we are perfect and have what i like to call a "real" marraige. We know times will get hard, times will get great but no matter what we are sticking thru it for better or for worse.
So if you are ever looking for positive advice, or unbiased advice I am the one to ask - I will not put down anyone or anyone's spouse. I am here to help others communicate the way my husband, my children and I do.
I could ramble on for hours...sorry!
Hope to talk to you all soon!

hi everyone! my name is Mandy, i am 24yo. i have been married to my DH josh for 5 years! we have a 2yo DD names Evelyn. We are still every much in love. DH has never been much of a conversationalist, but the last few months our communication had gotten really bad! i know its hard because he has a crazy work schedule and is really stressed but we have to do something! i am finding it harder to stay in love with him. We have talked about it but we need help!
Hello my name is April. I am very very happily married to my dh for almost 4 years now. This is the second marriage for both of us. We have been through a lot of ups and downs with dealing with outside influences. We have held strong to each other and are still going. I have 3 kids from a previous marriage and he has 1. We have a blast when we are all together and cherish every minute of it.
am 39 years old; I have a 13yo son and I have recently married his father - we reunited 2 years ago after a 10 year separation! We have both matured and are grateful to have a second chance to be a whole family. I am especially glad to have his help navigating our son through the teen years; my husband is an amazing parent! I tend to be overly permissive and lax about enforcing responsibilities; he has really helped to balance that out and I am amazed at how well my son responds to the extra expectations.
The only problem we have is communication - well miscommunication describes it better. We both admit that we communicate differently and sometimes (often) completely misunderstand what the other was actually saying. However, it often feels like I am the only one who is supposed to interpret the language of the other - he doesn't seem to feel the need to even try to understand me at all. I know that I can only change me - so I have taken to writing (which does not come naturally) and now seeking the advice of others.
Thank you all in advance for sharing your advice and experience, as well as lending an objective ear from time to time.
