three happy couples

three happy couples, originally uploaded by Lizi Beth.

Brian and Leah are now happily married and on their honeymoon.

John and I had the honor of taking them to the airport yesterday evening, and having them in the back seat made me feel a tad bit wistful. They are so very happy. John and I are also (very much so!), but it sent my memory back to last year when we were snatching every single kiss we could get (yes, at stop lights too). I miss that. There is no way on earth that I would send Emma back, but I miss the tender giddiness of being just us two.

It was the first wedding that John and I had attended together since our own, and it was good. Now that we have been to one together, I am looking forward to the next one, one where we will sit next to each other and hold hands and look dreamily at each other and kiss and where I will not need to take a baby out to nurse.

All that to say, John and I are going on a date tonight.
Without Emma.
