  4. You haven’t aged a day.

  5. not sure why that posted twice. I’ll blame it on Not-Ted

  6. Happy Anniversary guys! Tracy and I were commenting that while we know more than a few couples with lots of kids, and we know even more couples with an impressive calendar of social activities, we know no other couple with impressive stats on both fronts.

    Being an engineer, I am compelled to quantify your married life with a parameter:

    (Fractional Gregarity)*(children/US Fertility Rate)

    Where the “Fractional Gregarity” is the fraction of a week spent being, in some manner, a gregarious couple.

    I dub this parameter the Lickona Quotient (LQ).

    Thus, for a couple with 5 kids who spends 30% of their week (50.4 hours) in the company of friends and loved ones, and assuming a total fertility rate in the US of 2.1335, your LQ would be 0.703. This is nearly 7 times the national average. Well done! Well done.

    (Our LQ is a paltry 0.00557.)

  7. Wow. I wonder what my LQ is?

  8. Mrs. Speed says

    Happy Anniversary!
