[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 2482878, member: 7900"] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]Again for Number 4 and loving the wife. After 45 years of marriage, when I'm asked about the story of the success, I simply state the word "commitment" and explain that the commitment should begin before one even "pops the question." Also, action says a lot by having a parent enthusiastically participate in what their kids do. I remember an afternoon when the wife and I went to play frisbee golf with our youngest son. While he didn't say anything, the comment from his friends that they couldn't believe that his folks would come play with him was one that struck home to us. I'm guessing here, but I think my youngest was in his early 30's at the time. I took his friend's comment to mean that their relationships with their parents wasn't so good. Shoot, that same son still likes going to do things with us, including sharing our vacations. And, he will be 42 in June. [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
