Nearly six years before to the day, I got married to a wonderful woman. When I took those vows, I knew that it would be new and exciting territory, but I never fully realized what a life-changing event it would be, and as we discussed what led us to that point over dinner yesterday, it occurred to me how different my day-to-day routine now is compared to what it was when we were first married.
In a week or so, we hope to be at the exact spot we were both engaged, and married - 11,800 feet above sea level, at a place called Chasm Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park. Kids were but a distant thought at both times, and it’s kind of funny how fully they’ve taken over our lives. It’s even more astounding at how quickly that time has gone.
When I got home from work tonight, Noah and Elliot started playing on this $10 Little Tykes slide that Mandy bought off of Craigslist three years ago. I flashed back to a memory of Noah’s first attempts going down that slide, and it struck me how long it had been since we first had Noah.
