Now as you know, a lot of things inspire me to want to keep my marriage healthy and happy. One of them is meeting other wives who are making it work every day, and loving it! I knew quite a few before I said “I do”, and since Man Wife and Dog Blog was born I’ve met so many more. They’re all so fabulous I want you to meet them too. This week meet fab New York wife and mommy Quiana from Harlem Love Birds and her man!
The Wife: Quiana, 30
The Man: Uka, 30
But You Can Call Them: The Agbais
How She Snagged Him: “A real life Love and Basketball experience that spanned 10 years.”
Married Since: 6.26.09
The Kid: Virginia “Nia”, 1 year old
Place They Call Home: Harlem
How She Pays the Bills: Budding entrepreneur
How He Pays the Bills: Finance
What Makes Her Man Hot: “His humor, smile and height (6’8″!)”
A Wife Highlight: “We’ve known each other our entire adulthood, and no one knows me like he does; I love being with my best friend everyday!”
A Wife Gripe: “He’s not a planner like I am – more of a free spirit, but I’m learning to appreciate this.”
Marriage Mantra: “Sometimes you just gotta shut up and pray (courtesy of The Power of a Praying Wife).”
The 2-Year Plan: “Launch our own business and continue to save big time so we can own a home.”
Wifey Wisdom: “Pre-marital classes are a must! Too many brides-to-be focus on planning the wedding and not the marriage.”
