She Got Me

Friday, July 7th, 2006

Thanks for stopping by! If you'd like to stay caught up with Benjamin and Zachary, consider subscribing to our RSS feed. Take care!

Yesterday was our 4th anniversary. Stacey decided to conspire with Ashley to take me out for dinner.

This was a big deal for several reasons. First, it was our anniversary. Second, my wife is rarely successful at surprising me/keeping a secret. And third, it was to be the first time we’ve left Benjamin alone with a babysitter.

Stacey and Ashley had this whole secret cooked up for over two weeks. Sneaky, sneaky!

Stacey was worried that _I_ would be nervous about leaving Benjamin. As it turned out, I was fine. I have been around Ashley enough now to know that she’s been doing a great job watching him, and so I have faith in her to do that. Stacey was the nervous one, and eager to get back home once dinner was over. It was kinda funny. :)

Stacey: thank you for a lovely surprise and a great dinner. Thank you, too, for being a lovely and wonderful wife to me and mother to our son. It’s hard to believe it’s been four years already; I suspect time will only increase in speed now that we have Benjamin (and any siblings down the road)…

I look forward to all the years to come. :)
