self-help

Steve and I are exactly 10 years past the "the last time a child spent his summers at home."  At first, it felt as though our reason to be had been surgically removed. It wasn't gradual. They just stopped coming home. But, ever so slowly, we began to fill the minutes, the hours, the months and then years. We've practiced the craft of being just a couple again for such a long time that I feel that I can now call it an art.
