Being a wife is a hard job, however it is a labor of love. Just because we said we do doesn't mean we get to appear washed up and bum bitch like. I still have my womanly wilds and mystery about me to keep the freshness in my marriage. I don't know why the imagery of marriage has to seen as this eternal incarceration. I think in a marriage you have to work harder than you did being single to keep things interesting. Between work, children, and honey do's you can easily get caught up and forget who you are.
