Anonymous Over the course of the marriage on November 20, 2000 That is a meaningless phrase unless you are going to describe the wedding in detail. Over the course of the marriage, a daughter Jane was born on November 20th, 2000 and a son John was born on February 15, 2001.

Yes, the first thing I did was count months, but then I thought maybe it was twins.
