Today, the Browns report they have sex approximately six times a month, or double their frequency before their adventure. The Mullers decline to discuss their habits, except to say that they fall well within the national average. And, Brad said, the sex is better. “It made it much easier to be open to the idea, more spontaneous,” he said, “So you don’t go back to that always gaming for it and always trying to get out of it.” – NYT
My wife and I once read an article/blog post about a mom who would call her husband into the bathroom to “fix a leak” while their kids watched television. Being somewhat conservative we lauded the woman’s post-nuptial ingenuity and then employed a prudish version during days at home while our preschooler takes his mid-day nap and one of us is taking a shower, “Hey, there’s a leak in the bathroom…” We are always smart enough to lock the door.
Well the other day as we were engrossed in ‘fixing the leak’ our son woke up unbeknownst to us and from just outside the bathroom we heard the trill of his referee’s whistle. Laughter ensued as we exited in towels to face a grinning, inquisitive 4-year-old.
I’m positive (and hopeful) that he had no idea as to what was going on in the bathroom, but we have noted this as one of those funniest-moments-in-post-nuptial-sex — right under the time when one night as he slept he mumbled “Guys you’re forgetting me,” as us plumbers were in toiling away, fixing a very large leak in our bedroom.
