It’s all fair in love and war! For the month of February Just One Hot Mom has been featuring #blackhistory #blacklove.  Sit back relax and enjoy quotes and photos from some of my favorite couples.

4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 1 Cor. 4-8, The Stealey’s

 I give all the glory to God. It’s kind of a win-win situation. The glory goes up to Him and the blessings fall down on me. ~ Gabby Douglas via Drew Harris

Love, Trust, Loyalty and Communication =EVERLASTING LOVE~ Natasha Minor

Marriage is a team sport… I am only as strong as you are weak! We play to win; we play for keeps!- The Bumper’s

Sometimes you have to go through some things before you find that one that appreciates all the things that you do. When you find them, hold on to them.” We have a bond like no other. Communication is big for us. We talk about EVERYTHING. With that comes trust & everything else just falls into place. ~ Ja’Nontia

Being faithful to God, togetherness, open communication, loving each other every day. WE are one unit and there is no separation between this unit. The Smith’s

True love is God’s love. It is black love; it is white love and the true love of every color. It is the love we ought to show to ourselves and the love we show to others. God’s love never fails.~ The Craig’s

Friends Forever…Lovers for Eternity- The Godbott’s

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate then when I fall asleep your eyes close.” – Pablo Neruda via The Dickson’s

Tongue and teeth can fall out BUT they need each other to operate.- The White’s

My peace in a world of war~ Lynn Watts

If you know me loving me has to be one of the hardest things to do, but this man has found a way to do it for 21 years. If I told you that every day was easy and that we’ve never seen days that we didn’t think we would make it I would be telling a lie! Has he broken my heart a time or two yes, as I have his. But in the end we both acknowledged it and realized we would be losing more by giving up, and allowing the enemy to win! We both know that he is mine and I am his and no one will ever love us as we love each other. My husband is my best friend, my confidant, my provider and my lover! I would climb the highest mountain and Swim the deepest oceans for this man, would walk across the desert just to get to him, there isn’t anything in this world that I wouldn’t do to keep a smile on this man’s face…I love him in place where space and time doesn’t exist!! Veronica Carroll

 John & Shonteea Ford. 10 years of marriage on 8/05/16. “When your mate is the first person in your prayers, the first person you share good and bad news with, the first person you think of as your best friend is the key to knowing that your marriage has the foundation to last the test of time.- The Ford’s
