Nie Nie: "My Secrets to a Happy Marriage"

Christian and I never go to bed without each other (unless we are away, of course). No sleeping-on-the-couch business either. We leave love notes to each other often. I hide them near his keys, and he puts them on the kitchen table. We dance in front of the children. And we pray together daily.
