For years I don’t really thought it is important.
For years I laughed off the thought of dating my husband I thought….
- “When we get some spare time”.
- “Why shall we go on date? We already married”.
- “When we win the lottery”.
And then that little baby girl started to grow up. She turned six and we couldn’t believe that we were again over the baby stage. We actually were in a place where the baby was okay with us leaving her for a few hours or a few days with our families, at Gym event of “Parents Night Out”, and babysitters (our beloved friends willing to babysits her). There was no reason why we shouldn’t spend some time together just the two of us.
And so, we had our mini getaway vacation to Salida, Colorado to do our snowshoeing and have a picnic at Old Monarch Pass. We tried to take a picture of just the two of us. (We need to work on this one a little better). Next time.
And after the snowshoeing we went out to dinner. We ate really good pizzas!
What a fun getaway weekend we had! It was at this point that we started to feel the kid blues which mostly likely me! The sadness you feel when you see something really cool and think about how great Ember would think it is too. We headed home the next day. On the drive home we realized how nice it was to get away for a while just the two of us. It was not about being away from our daughter because we love having her around… it is about us being together. When you are together as a family it’s about her, like it should be, when it’s just the two of you together, it’s about two people connecting. I finally understand now…..after 12 years!
Tell me, do you ever go on dates with your husband?
