He came to his dad on the eve of his wedding asking “Dad, any last minute advice?” “Any words of wisdom?” “And please can you be precise.” “When it comes to your wife,” Dad smiled “I have a few insights that might apply: Know when to make her laugh and know when to let her cry.” Let her know you will do your best to never make her frown to encourage and support her… and never let her down. And finally tell her she need not be afraid because you want it known… you will always be beside her… and she’ will never be alone.
