I’m sure most would agree that marriage takes a bit of work. But, what “thing” worth having doesn’t? We all have our good days and just okay days. Sometimes it takes a while to get out the valley of “bad” days as a married couple. Do you know a couple that seems to be really happy? Have you ever asked a couple that you admire, just how they do it? I have. I do it all the time to acquire nuggets and little secrets of success in marriage. I have asked my grandparents, who have been married for 60 years and other young happily married friends of ours. I’ve compiled a list of their secrets. Here are 5 things super happy couples do everyday.

I blogged about the same thing a while ago. This is sooo important. My husband is actually away A LOT, and absence truly does make the heart grow fonder. I miss him like crazy, everyday! When we're together (and, yes before now) we make sure we have "screen-free" time. We have to talk to each other without holding or sitting in front of anything with a screen (i.e. laptop, cell phone, TV, iPad). My husband eats, sleeps, and breathes his job so, 30 minutes of this is enough to square away minor details, catch up on highs/lows, and grab a quick kiss before one of us is pulled away by something or a little person.

I found this very interesting.
Secret to a happy marriage: Share yourself completely; no secrets. It is divine to be loved for who you REALLY are. Not an idealized version of yourself. Keeping secrets will mean you’d never know this gift of unconditional love.
