It isn't one of my usual melodies, but I have been walking around singing Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe". I am hooked on this song because of one line that sings much better than I can express how I feel about Jason.
"Before you came into my life
I missed you so bad
And you should know
that I missed you so, so bad"
As
a surprise for our 8-yr anniversary, Jason made arrangements for the
kid's care and whisked me off to Munich for the weekend. As he pushed
the accelerator, I thought about the fact that eight years may seem like
peanuts to many married couples who are well up in the double digits.
My eight, are like a good cup of coffee, a perfect taste of tiramisu, the first sip of a rich red wine that has been breathing, the quite slow dance in the living room, the squeeze of my hand, feeling safe when life goes a little scary, and most of all still enjoying our time together...especially when it involves being whisked away from everything but him. Before you came into my life, I had the coffee, tiramisu, and wine, but I missed you so, so bad.

It felt like a honeymoon all over again. We have "toured" Munich more than once, but we don't get much time together without our two minis. It was nice to have so much quality time just 'being' us and strolling Munich with no schedule. We have always been fortunate to meet intriguing people around the world. On this weekend trip, we met and spent part of the afternoon with this 94 year old women. She was very much alive, didn't ask how long we had been married, or what we did for a job and stressed as she was leaving, that living a happy life was the secret of living long. I believe her!
