Avoid Divorce, Be Happy By Doing These Things



Laurie and FEB

Not all marriages crash. Some remain intact and share lovey-dovey moments together.
Laurie Idahosa is  married to FEB, the first son of late Archbishop Idahosa. Their 14th wedding anniversary comes up in October and she shares a sneak peek into some of the things that she and her  husband enjoy doing together.
You can reproduce it in your marriage too. According to her, “Most of these things don't cost much money, but they do cost time. Time is something we are happy to spend on each other.”
Their kids
1. Go to the theatre and events together. The nature of our jobs mean that we are always on the stage and are often the main speakers for events. So whenever we can, we slip away and enjoy, theatre presentations, conferences and events as spectators. We learn a lot together in these presentations and enjoy the surprise on peoples faces when they see us sitting in the crowd.
2. Travel together: We love to go on excursions even if it's just for a few days. It's amazing what 48 hours can do for any marriage. Before we had children, we went on cruises. We are still waiting for the Venice trip we dreamed about before we married... maybe we will do it when the boys grow up.
3. Exercise together, especially going for long walks, hand-in-hand. We have found that taking time to walk and talk together has been a breeding ground for creative ideas and finding solutions to any issues we are facing professionally. It's usually on these long walks that we dream and share our visions with one another.
4. Enjoy playing with our children together. There's something electric about watching your children laugh and giggle as you play with them. Spending time with my husband and our boys just defines what home truly is; warmth, hugs, jokes and giggles. 
 5. Watch movies in bed. It is a real blessing to be with someone who shares your interests in movies. My husband and I have this connection and it is one way we spend quality time with each other. We just snuggle up under the covers and watch a series or a movie together. There's been nights that we slept as late as 3am just to catch the end of an intriguing film. 
6. Go shopping together. We love to window shop. My husband especially enjoys "pricing" watches and a sundry of items while waiting in traffic whenever we travel through Lagos. We look, we negotiate prices and sometimes, when the item is essential, we buy it.

7. He is the absolute best kisser on planet earth! There is nothing as exciting as being physically close to Feb and we love to kiss! I love that he still finds me irresistibly sexy, even after 4 children. We are a very affectionate couple, always cuddling and kissing. In fact, after writing this.... I'm going to kiss him NOW!
