Almost Six Years
My wife and I will celebrate the sixth anniversary of our marriage on June 6, 2012. So yes, we were married on 6/6/6 and this is 6 years later. Lots of sixes.
5 Years: No Regrets
In roughly two weeks, my wife and I will celebrate the fifth anniversary of our wedding. It’s traditionally the “wood” anniversary, so I’ve considered buying some lumber for my wife and letting her build something with it. Ha. The “new tradition” is silverware, which we now have plenty of.
Marline and Me
I dropped my wife off at the Killeen airport Thursday morning. Yes, Killeen has an airport. It’s the first time either of us has lived less than 15 minutes from an airport. I watched her go through the (very short) security line into the terminal, which has only six gates, and then she was gone.[...]
Christmas Shopping
Buying for Her: Nothing makes it easier to Christmas shop for your wife than getting exact instructions. This is one reason my wife and I get along so well: we’re both list-makers, explainers, and mildly obsessive compulsive. Both of us think things through, and then stick with our decisions, so there’s little-to-no confusion in the[...]
Temporary Bachelor
This morning, I dropped off my wonderful wife at the OKC airport, so she could return to NYC for the weekend. In more than two years of marriage, this will be our longest separation, both in time and in distance. The previous record was when she went to Tulsa for two days for a work-related[...]
Tomorrow
The song says “tomorrow is just a day away.” Right now, though, it’s only a few minutes away. And in New York, tomorrow has already started. (The same goes for Europe, and everything else that’s east of here.) And tomorrow — Sept. 19, 2008 — my wife will turn 27. The following day, I’ll be[...]
Alone Time
Cassie, you’re right. It works out well that we have some alone time, and some together time. Marline gets her first paycheck on Friday, and things should smooth out after that. (I’m sorry you didn’t get to go to your bazaar… That sucks. But rules are rules.) In the meantime, Marline’s away at a conference.[...]
One Day Left
She Gets Here TOMORROW! I remember thinking that the day would never come when I could say that. I remember thinking, “Two and a half months is a LONG time.” And it felt like it lasted forever, even when I wasn’t thinking about it. In the past 75 or so days, I’ve written about 200[...]
The Story of Us
(There is a more permanent version of this entry here, on my website.) As promised, I will attempt to detail the way I met Marline, the love of my life. She has already written a relatively detailed account from her perspective, so I will try to just give my end of it, with a little[...]

This video is is cuter without sound (I forgot to mute the TV before recording). Rebecca was proud that she drinks out of a glass now, without spilling: (Copyright © 2013 by Wil C. Fry. All rights reserved.)

Flickr did their biggest change ever this evening. There’s a little more about that on my other blog. I’m seriously considering ending my eight-year relationship with Flickr. If only there were another decent place to share photos (and remember, I said “decent”, so no one suggest Facebook). Rebecca worked on learning my limits again today.[...]

WEATHER: 72-93°F, mostly cloudy RLF requested the playground today, after a few weeks of not going, so I said okay. She wouldn’t walk there; only rode in the stroller. And only played there for about five minutes before she was ready to come home. (This is why we’d quit going in the first place.) She[...]
- Forgot To Mention: May by Wil C. Fry
➤ A couple of nights ago, Rebecca woke up crying about 2 a.m. My wife heard it, rushed in. RLF said she needed to go to the bathroom. MF took her; RLF did. Then RLF went back to sleep. (I didn’t wake up. Noises will prevent me from falling asleep, but very little will wake[...]
- May 18, 2013: More Hotter by Wil C. Fry
After a cooler than average spring, yesterday was the hottest day of the year (high: 92°F) until today’s record high of 96°F. Had a pretty good day with Rebecca (scroll down for photos).

Rebecca did well with potty again today — still working on #2. After an early, short, and surprising nap (she put herself down at 11:50 for just an hour), much of the afternoon was full of fussing and craziness. I got a new debit card today, to replace the old one that was cracking and[...]

- May 14: Ikea & 34 Weeks by Wil C. Fry
A few days ago, we passed what I’ve jokingly called “the Rebecca threshold” with our Benjamin pregnancy. She was born about 7 weeks before her due date. As of May 10, we passed that point in the current pregnancy. My wife’s at 34 weeks as of today, and about nine pounds lighter than she was[...]
