Wayne and I are going out on a date tonight. We’re going to see a comedy show and then dinner.  We started this tradition years ago shortly after the children were born.  We were completely wrapped up in raising our family. 

On one rare night we happened to go out to dinner, Wayne suggested we not mention the children.  We sat and stared at one another with nothing to say.  It was enough to shake us up to the point we decided to take time just for us . . .   to date again.  It’s a practice that has served us well through the years.  It’s a little like being in high school again.  (I think  Wayne’s going to give me his class ring tonight!)
