It shouldn't be a big secret that in marriage, you're going to have to compromise on a lot of things. You have to consider how different things are going to affect your spouse as well as yourself. You're a married couple, a team, and that means you can no longer be completely independent in everything you do. Sometimes this might mean sacrificing something for the betterment of your marriage or sacrificing a personal goal to achieve a goal that you've set as a couple.

In our life, March came in like lion and went out like a llama. I say a llama because it is still sassy and a little wild, and not quite as calm as a lamb, but it's starting to get better and we've had happy things come our way! I am so lucky to have the husband that I do, someone to be there for me through the happy and the sad. Life wouldn't be the same without him. He encourages me to do things that I'm not sure I'd be capable of and he always keeps me laughing and positive about life. He's my everything!

As part of this weekend's date night, it might be fun sit down with your spouse and set some boundaries. Maybe one of you absolutely hates to take out the garbage, and it becomes an argument every time so you might decide that the other person will always take out the garbage, as long as they don't ever have to clean the toilet. Be sure to also set boundaries that will protect your marriage from outside conflicts. I admire people who have a no electronics in the bedroom rule, (tv, phones, laptops, tablets, etc.) and I think it's the perfect boundary to guarantee quality time together, better sleep and a happier couple.
