We’ve recently returned from a 10-day trip to Italy — a country that already held a special place in our hearts. Fifteen years ago, we travelled there as newlyweds, wide-eyed and full of dreams. This time, we returned as parents — more grounded, perhaps wiser, and accompanied by our two beautiful daughters, aged 11 and 8. The trip was to celebrate our younger one’s birthday, but in many ways, it became a quiet celebration of life itself — of how far we’ve come, and of the tra
