    Never go to bed with being angry and not saying I love you. Always be there for one another in time of need. Discuss how to raise your children and consequences when it comes to discipline

    Y’all are so wise to get advice from your parents. It’s so very obvious they are so love with each other after 35 years. First and foremost is the fact that God has guided them on decisions that had to be made. I wish you both a life of love, devotion and happiness.

You have such a beautiful family and we love your sense of humor. You all have so much fun together. Your mom & dad are wise and such real down to earth people. Trace ya sure turned out to be a real handsome young man. So happy you found someone to share your life with. We love all of your family. We live in Canada and have been married 39 years.
