Welcome back! I too am in this boat, though my wife has also been certiied....

In your case, I see the best possible opportunity is for her to get enrolled in a class, learning what is "new", and you can get in a refressher course. That way, you too become aware of how the sport has changed (yeah, I'm overwhelmed too). Know what? Once you get beac in the water, it all is, as it was!!!!

WELCOME BACK!!!!!
