Jordan Ferney: "My Secret to a Happy Marriage"

We have a thing called "surprise treats." They can be flowers, love notes, our favorite candy, a cool picture, a drawing or a book. It's not usually expensive--just a thoughtful, fun surprise. We wrap them up and hide them, and then call each other and say there's a surprise treat waiting.

P.S. This New York Times essay on marriage is really beautiful.
