So as I mentioned in my last post I had a friend stay over for a couple nights while she and her husband worked through an argument. Hubster and I commented on how the first year of marriage is a bitch... Even though we had lived together beforehand something about the official ness of it all made it feel like a prison sentence with no chance of parole (ok so I'm overly dramatic bit you get my point). I think how we survived it was the apology glass. The what you say? Well here is the story...
My grandmother had given my sister a glass and a poem when my sister got married. My grandmother (actually both and my grandfathers but I'm not bitter) passed away before my wedding. My sister gave me a copy of the poem and my own glass for my shower, she said it was from her and Mimi.
So I told my (newly married) friend about this and she loved it. I thought you might too :-)
+++are you good at apologies? I'm not but my friend patty is fabulous at it+++
Joy! I was so glad to see your comment on my blog! And I like the concept of the apology glass!
ReplyDeleteHey there! Glad to hear from you. I'm getting married in December, and altough we have been living together for almost four years, I know that something will feel different. Being Mrs. Haney will feel so strange! Like I'm a new person.
