Day Eleven

Another day in paradise. I finally got my pizza for dinner, and even got to video chat with Mommy Lion for a few minutes.

Little Pumpkin was so wrapped up in her friends, I think I was fortuante to get a goodbye kiss tonight. What a joy to see my children happy and playing with friends. Oh to be four again! (Little Pumpkin would remind me that she's 4 1/2)

Today is 14 years of the Lion Den. There's some point where we crossed the imaginary lines this year we cross two. The Lions Den has been with Little Lion for longer than we've been without him. He was born in 2003, we were married in 1997. This year we became "with" him for seven years; we were "without" him for six years before that.

So for Mommy Lion and I, today marks 14 years of marriage. Mommy Lion was 15 years old when I first heard her name. I was a mere 19 at the same time. It's safe to say that we have now known each other for longer than, well, we were clueless.

Happy anniversary to my bride. I already confessed to her that I had dinner with another woman tonight (and her husband, and their three kids, and my two kids, but another woman none the less!) Kiss the one you love tonight, if you're anything like me, they've changed your life forever!

  1. She's just as beautiful as she was as that teenage bride, and Daddy Lion is just as handsome, your two littls gifts from God just make you greater than you were before they came. Have a great evening and make up for your being apart when she gets back home.
