Chris and I got married more than a decade ago, which is wild to think about—it doesn't feel like it's been that long. Our years together have brought us closer in ways I don't think we could have begun to imagine when we first met. And at the same time, I feel like our younger selves would be surprised by how romance looks way different than it used to.
At the beginning of a relationship, everything feels exciting and intentional as you fall in love. If you get married, that feels fresh in a different way because you're committing to a life together.
And despite what people might tell you, after kids, there IS still time for romance. You just have to find the time for it, where it used to just happen naturally. A friend once told me, "When you have two kids, you and Chris will never watch TV together again." I laughed, but then it happened.
