He’s black where it counts!

I has a marriage

Luke and I have been married 12 years this June.  Quite a long time these days with a divorce rate somewhere around 50%.  I would attribute common interests and a firm belief in God for our marriage surviving this far.  We have had our low times and high times but that’s just part of life.   Meeting each other at 16 then getting married a little shy of my 19th birthday sounds crazy to some.  I’m just grateful I met my sole mate at such an early age.  I can’t imagine being “on the market” and having to really date.  At 16 a date consists of the movies and McDonald’s…easy!  I could also attribute our happiness to such things as compromise, respect and the joy of children but what I tell people most of all is one simple fact.  He may be a slightly overweight white guy BUT  he’s black where it counts…need I say more?
