We are an inter racial couple that have been together since october of 1998. We finally got married in august of 2006 and have been mostly enjoying married life ever since. We have two beautiful children that bring us great joy and sometimes equally great frustration. The idea for this site popped up as a result of conversations with each other and some very close friends. We are certainly not experts in marriage and have no degrees, certificates, or professional training in anything pertaining to marriage, relationships, or family counseling. We love the God of the bible with our whole hearts and trust in Him to direct our paths. We love each other very much and continue to learn more about each other every day. We love our children and find new surprises as they continue to grow up and have life experiences of their own. We have come to realize that marriage is not just a partnership and a good way to raise children, but that a marriage is in itself a ministry. By putting God first, the fruits of your marriage will be evident to all those around you, and you as a family can bear witness to the wonders of God just by being who you are. We hope you will join us in our endeavor and learn a few of the things we think are important to our relationship, and hopefully you will think they are important too.
PS. The name of the site is Eight-Twelve. This is not some random number, nor is it some super secret numerological formula for making unicorns cry. It is simply the date that we got hitched.
