This time, she said, “We both were like, ‘Wow, we’re so happy and we don’t want any ofthatto come into play again.’ We’re older now, we’re smarter, we have more experience, we’re at different places in our lives, we have kids now, and we have to be very conscious of those things. We’re so protective because it is such a beautiful time for all of us.”
