[Agamemnon]

My wife does respect me. I guess I got one of the good ones.

My wife and I are coming up on 29 years married this year.

We raised 4 very accomplished children, now 20 years old and older: 2 men - both are Eagle Scouts and USMC, now enrolled in college; one is a pathobiology major (UCONN), the other enrolled in UCONN School of Business. 2 women, one (now a UCONN grad) enrolled in the Masters program through Sotheby's in London, and the youngest working on her degree in animal science (UCONN).

I like to think that deep down even where there may be opposition to a position I take, I, as their father, still have all their respect.

I can say here now, as I often do: I am married to the kind of girl every man WISHED he was married to.

FReegards!

I bet your wife thinks she is married to a man every woman wishes she had for a husband. :-)

I have been married to my husband for 32 years....a real honey! Early in our marriage I had a herniated disc ( C 5/6) in my neck. It was very incapacitating for months. Every night my husband came home from work, bought groceries, made dinner, did the laundry,cleaned up the mess, and put 3 preschoolers to bed. I realized that marriage between a man and woman isn’t 50-50. It is 100% from both.

Me?...I am married to a knight in shining armor.
