It was on our second date just a week from our first date when Erik turned to Sheila and said,"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
Sheila paused,"That we are going to get married."
Erik, amazed,"Yeah, just don't tell anyone yet."
We had known each other less than a month.
We've been married twelve years now. Two babies, two graduate schools, several traveling jobs, one long separation due to schooling, infertility, unemployment, a life-threatening illness, disability, traveling abroad, buying a home, around 20 moves, and yet we are still kicking, our relationship stronger than ever.
Married for 4 years, living in Germany
Married for 7 years
Married for 9 years
Married for 10 years
