Hi Dr. Laura,
I am a long time listener and fan of you and your show. I am writing to you today to thank you! Thank you for all of the advice you have given to me over the years. Because of your advice, I can say I am MY 5 KIDS MOM, a happy wife, and my husband's girlfriend!
You see I come from a broken family, my mother has been married 5 times. My idea of marriage was not ideal. Obviously right? I started listening to you and you changed the way I thought of marriage and men. I realized I could have a happy marriage if I choose wisely, treat kindly. I read your book "The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" years ago and that was a game changer for me once again.
My husband and I just celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. We took our kids on a trip to celebrate. We told them it was our families birthday! I tell my kids all the time that I am so proud of myself. I did such a good job picking their father! My kids will never have to know what it is like to grow up in a broken home and to not have their dad around.
So I sincerely thank you for being that voice in my head to pick a real man and to choose wisely, treat kindly!
Much love,
Wendy
