marriages require work

I think that it's very important to remember that marriages do require work.  A lot of people have the misconception that once they have the ceremony and sign the papers that everything will just be "happy go lucky".  I think that when I myself get married, and as a professional, it will be very important to remember the importance of not letting "couple time" get put on the back-burner.  I think that scheduling a date night for once a week or whatever time works is a very good idea.  I also think that couples need to make sure to have time to themselves outside of their children.
