We only have the two kids, yet one on one time with either of them is rare. They play so well together and love each other so much that we really try hard to always make sure they include each other, even when they have a friend over to visit. But for the first time ever, Joseph & Lillian were invited to play at a friends house this weekend at separate times. First, we all visited the playground at Weber Elementary (where Joseph is enrolled in 1/2 day Kindergarten beginning in August of this year). To help get him excited, we tested out the new playground equipment....it passed our test! Then, we dropped Joseph off at Marcus' house for a play date. When I asked Lillian what special activity she wanted to do with just mommy, she opted to just stay home and have un-interrupted play time in her room. But that was a good idea, that helped her relax and rest for her big playdate and sleepover at Graceyn's house. After I dropped Lillian off at Graceyn's it was time to pick up Joseph. When I asked him what he wanted to do with his one on one time with mommy, he said, "Go Exploring!". So we hiked the Two Ponds Nature Trail for a bit and had a great time. Then we went out to dinner with Daddy. What a treat to take one kid out for a meal in public! It was a great start to Lillian's Spring Break Week.
