Funny Illustrations of Life Before and After Marriage

The same is true in marriage. The excitement and newness of dating takes us for emotional highs and lows. We get to enjoy learning and dreaming with a new person, imagining a life together. After marriage, though, we begin to live out those imaginations, and we learn what life looks like realistically.

That vision of life, though, holds special moments and beautiful dreams all of it’s own. You get to move past the stress of needing to present yourself to a potential spouse and into the familiarity of living with a new family member.

These 14 Baby Bison Will Make You Proud To Call Them Our National Mammal

Image
On today's episode of "Barrack Obama is the Man," our president signs a bill declaring that the North American bison is our national mammal, because why not? The National Bison Legacy Act — which is a real thing that exists — positions the bison as one of our national animals because it played an important role in westward expansion. That being said, the dudes behind the expansion were notorious for sipping on that haterade since they nearly drove these animals to extinction, depriving Native Americans of a valuable food source in the process. Fortunately, conservationists have brought the North American bison back from the brink. To celebrate their newfound distinction, let's take a look at some baby bison being adorable. 1.

She refused to give up on her unborn child...and continued to b
