Summary:
"The transition from "married" to "married with children" can be tough. Before they know it, a once youthful and energetic married couple finds themselves in a minivan loaded with noisy kids and littered with Cheerios, crusty Sippy cups, banana peels, and missing library books. As much as you love your children and work hard to nurture and train them for the future, the challenges that come with parenthood can make the "for better or for worse" promise a hard one to honor. Learn to build a God-centered marriage instead of a Child-centered or Me-centered marriage. Avoid the dangers of spouse-neglect and self-neglect. Effectively communicate in the chaos. Explore ways to parent together as one team. Find balance in the busyness"--Provided by publisher.
