Weekly dates had to be defined even more creatively when the kids were little. Sometimes a date would be playing backgammon after the kids were in bed, or sometimes we would eat dinner on the porch, while the kids ate mac and cheese at the table inside. <br /><br />Yes, Drexel is ours forever. He's a "Proud Career Change Dog", according to the tag that Guide Dogs for the Blind sent him home with. I really hope the next puppy becomes a working guide, but I am happy to have Drexel back. He's a great dog. He's sleeping at my feet right now; he seems happy to be home.
