Craig and I are headed out this morning to spend a few days (gasp!) alone together. Our actual wedding anniversary isn't until the 15th but I'll be camping overnight with my 5th grader. This is very reminiscent of the time I spent at my sister Trisha's 8th grade trip just prior to the wedding itself... Somehow, Craig isn't nearly as upset at the timing as he was the first time.It occurs to me as I am sitting here that it has been several years (by several I mean a decade or so) since we had a picture sitting as a couple. Perhaps we might sneak that in sometime this weekend. I think we are starting to look a, uh, little different than we did back then. Physical appearances aside, even in a picture it is hard (for me at least) to envision us not surrounded by our children. Yet I know, with increasing clarity and alarm, that we are already at the beginning of such things. Isn't it wondrous the way some life changes manage to bless and curse us at the same time?
