Happy Anniversary!

Today was our 28th anniversary. We celebrated by leaving our children in the capable hands of Mandy and Alex. Yesterday we went to another workshop. The topic of this one was trauma (we chose this because we are raising children who have suffered trauma, not because we've been married for 28 years). After the workshop, we checked into a hotel and spent the night all by ourselves. When we sat in bed in the morning, no little person came in uninvited and jumped in between us, no Beagles came in to see where their breakfast was, no cats scratched on the door, and nobody was fighting in the kitchen. It was wonderful, for one night, and now it's good to be home. They all did well, and there were no casualties, so maybe we'll do that again!
