Happy anniversary ...

... to us!

And just us.

Sorry my boy, but this one isn't about you - today is strictly about your mum and dad. Its our fourth wedding anniversary, and the last one we'll ever spend just on our own.

Don't get me wrong - I love the fact that all family occasions will soon involve an extra person. Christmas in particular will take on a whole new dimension.

But I'd be lying if I said that today isn't tinged with a degree of nostalgic sentimentality. To date, our anniversaries have never been huge affairs: modest presents, a nice dinner, a decent bottle of wine perhaps. But they have been completely about us - just Julie and I. I'm going to miss that a bit.

(And of course this year, I'm also going to miss that decent bottle of wine. Well ... at least your Mum is going to miss her share of it!)

Just between you and me, I think that either Gran or Nana might be getting a little visitor in a year's time ...
