           Tonight we went on our second real date since the birth of our son. So funny how having a child changes things, and I mean that in the best way possible. So now here we are driving down the road holding hands in this unfamiliar and quiet stillness trying not to break the sound barrier on our way back to Grandpa and Grandma’s. It’s only been fifteen months and it’s hard to imagine there ever was a time when it wasn’t just the two of us. So while date night was incredible, having that time to reconnect, I can’t honestly say it was nice to have some time with “just us” because that wouldn’t be true. There is no us without him anymore. There just isn’t and we wouldn’t have it any other way. So now here we are driving down the road holding hands with the summer sun low in the sky, every rolling green hill bringing us closer and closer to that sweet little boy who has forever changed our definition of “us”.
