I’ll have the car out back, Eric.

March21

I woke up this morning thinking about Katie going to marriage counseling today; since she and Eric are full-time students (graduating this May!), they had to schedule ALL of their sessions for one day — pretty intense, right?

I decided to send her (whom I call “little one” affectionately and yet accurately — she is awfully little) a quick text to let her know she was on my mind this morning:

“Been thinking about how exciting it is that you’re going to pre-marital counseling today!  One step closer, little one!  YAY!”

I got a reply within seconds:

“Can you come pick Eric up after we break up?”

    Yeah…marriage counseling can bring up some nasty topics. We went to dinner w/ a couple last year after one of their counseling sessions. Whoa…can you say awkward?

    If I remember correctly, we left the restaurant w/ the guys in one car & the girls in the other.

    Yeah…I’d say that’s pretty accurate. Bless her little heart… :) Marriage is HARD but oh so worth it. I’m glad they’re getting the chance to dig in before the big day!

    A sense of humor is the BEST thing you can bring to a marriage. I’d say she’s off to a good start. :)

    Marriage counseling is worth it, but it is sooo hard, especially when you pack it all into one day. INTENSE! I hope that they’ll be holding hands and laughing by the end of the day! :)
