Life After "I Do!" will have you pounding the table with agreement and sighing with relief. "It´s not just me, or my marriage, or my kids, this happens to lots of people!" Egan guides you through the inevitable ups and downs of individual separate lives blending into one family. Each chapter addresses a different topic, topics few people expect or are prepared for: being at wit's end with your spouse, troublesome in-laws, keeping up with the Joneses, being stripped of all self-confidence when raising children full time, and lots more. But more importantly, Life after "I Do!" delivers dozens of fresh action oriented ideas and loving common sense insights to transform your marriage and family life. You´ll learn to recognize roles and organize your family like a small business so you can enjoy your family much, much more. There´s even a solution for getting your kids to help you without fighting! "Reading Rachel Egan's wisdom, I found myself planning ways I could reconnect with my husband, ways I could be more tolerant and patient, but perhaps more importantly, I found myself laughing out loud and feeling less alone with the knowledge that marriage can sometimes be a true spiritual grind for everybody. Hallelujah for Rachel!" Jennifer Louden Best-selling author of The Couple's Comfort Book, Comfort Secrets for Busy Women
