Hi Cathy -

I thought of you many times yesterday and silently wished you a Happy Anniversary. It was also my H's birthday so we were celebrating here too.

I know what you mean about having a good time when your H isn't home. You can relax and not be on guard so much. I feel the same way still. I don't ever stop DBing - even when he isn't here - but I find that I can relax a little and not worry that I am going to somehow blow it with him. I am sure you understand.

Of course, I am always the happiest when he is here with us or we are together. We still haven't had our date yet, but I'm giving it more time. Our anniversary is in November, so if not by then, then I will do what you did!

I am so glad that you had such a great evening. And it wasn't even close to a baby step - I'd say it was a LEAP in the right direction! But don't get spoiled and think he will keep on leaping, remember he may even retreat (heaven forbid that he admit to having fun with his wife ), but you know he had fun so you can keep walking around with that smile on your face!

Have a great day!
