Well, today I was able to spend some time with my family after we unexpectedly got the kids for the weekend because their Mom backed out of her visitation. Since the opportunity presented itself, I took this chance to make my task for the day to spend as much quality time with the whole family as possible.
First, I brought our daughter to my dance rehearsal at church because she loves to dance and I thought she would enjoy rehearsing with us. Even though she's only 6, she was able to keep up quite well with us! She was completely floored by the experience and you could see her confidence get stronger by the minute! I'm so glad that we were able to share something that we both love so much. Dance is such a powerful form of expression and if you can find something like that you can share with your children, I highly recommend making a point to do those things together.
Next, I was able to take the whole family to see the new movie Tron since my job was having a free showing for all employees. It was such a blessing. We don't get to go to the movies very often because of the ever-increasing prices, but once we do, it's a family activity we all cherish because we are so enamored with the whole movie-going experience. And to top it off, we all loved the movie, even our new infant, who used the constant electronica as a backdrop for a great nap!
Now, as we retire to bed, I will be spending some quality time with my husband, watching a romantic comedy as we settle in for the night. I always love to relax with my hubby while watching a good chick flick :). Husbands, I know this may be rough sometimes, but you never know what you could be missing until you try it! You may even start to like romantic comedies!
Well, this was a short one, I know, but it's time to get to that movie.
