Cherish the “Us” Before the “All of Us” 🌸

Marriage is one of the most beautiful relationships life gifts us. It begins with long conversations, shared dreams, and that warm comfort of knowing you’ve found “your person.” But somewhere between becoming partners and becoming parents, something funny happens—the husband and wife quietly disappear behind Mom and Dad.

We get so busy surviving routines that we forget to nourish the relationship that created the family in the first place. Yet the truth is simple: a strong marriage is the backbone of a happy home.

Life before children was filled with silly jokes, late-night talks, and planning dates that didn’t involve diaper bags. Today, we plan grocery lists and fight over whose turn it is to finish the leftover dal. But beneath the chaos lives the same love, the same spark, the same two teammates who once held hands just to feel connected.

A good marriage is built on small, consistent acts—not grand gestures. It’s in sharing the last piece of chocolate, covering each other’s mistakes, laughing at inside jokes, and supporting each other’s dreams even when sleep is a luxury.

As parents, we often think children need perfect parents. But what they truly need is parents who love, respect, and cherish each other. Because a peaceful marriage creates a peaceful childhood.

So pause. Look at your partner—not as the co-parent, but as the person who chose you even before life got messy. Water the marriage. Celebrate the little moments. Hold hands again.

Because when husband and wife stay connected, the whole family stays strong.
