10 years ago my wife and I celebrated our wedding. 10 years, a lot can happen in 10 years. In 10 years you can, have 4 kids, move halfway across the world, live in 7 different homes, switch jobs, look for new careers, learn anew language (more or less) and hopefully learn to be a bit less self absorbed along the way. It has been a great 10 years, not with out it's trials and tribulations, but that is part of life no matter where you are.
One of the nice things about living in a small community like our's, when a few of our friends heard it was going to be our 10 year anniversary, they insisted on taking our kids so we could go away for a couple of nights by ourselves. The fact that our kids feel comfortable enough with their friends' parents makes it easier on us as well. We don't have to worry that we are putting the kids somewhere just so we could have some time to ourselves as we'll. in fact I don't know who is more excited, us to get away together for the first time since our pilot trip 7 years ago, or the kids. I hope we can make a (not to regular) habit of this.
