Teamwork

Carollette and I have been talking lately about what makes a good, lasting relationship. One of the things we came up with is teamwork.

We make an absolutely incredible team.


Some of my favorite teams...

We're best friends, both of us are very patient, understanding, and willing to listen to the other. One of the most important characteristics in a good teammate is dependability. She's shown me time and time again that I can depend on her when it counts. This is an invaluable quality.

What brought about this entry is, last week one of our good friends passed away, leaving his wife. They had been married for probably close to 50 years, and were still a very loving couple. They worked in the community together all the time, and made the perfect team. They seemed to truly enjoy each other's company, and I can rarely remember seeing them apart.


Anyway, I say all of this to say that they are a couple whose relationship I would like for us to emulate. I had been looking for an example of what I want our marriage to be, and outside of one or two couples in the family, all the rest had been on TV (shout out the Huxtables).

Not quite sure how to end this...teamwork = good for marriage.

Amen.

My all-time favorite team
