I believe you are sincere.

For starters, every morning ask God's help through the day....

..it doesn't have to be a fancy prayer....just "Lord, please help me"...

...then, ask your wife what is important that you get done that day....for that day alone...

...then write it down and do it.

If she's halfway eager to making this marriage work as you seem to be, she will appreciate your efforts.

The next day, start again....take one day at a time.

Then, if your wife will not join you in this effort, and only criticizes you....

...you will know you have given it a good try again and again....

...and your conscience will be easier to deal with.

Try very hard to consider your son....and spend as much time with him as possible.

Be kind to your wife even if she's not kind to you....(then you will know you have done your best)...

God bless, I will pray for you.

Morning Prayer:

It's been a good day so far, Lord

Thank You

I haven't yelled at anyone, I haven't said anything stupid, or hurt anyone's feelings.

I'm getting out of bed now, so if You would, help me make the rest of the day just as pleasant.
