Each Sunday, I get up way too early to play tennis. When I return home, Chris immediately sets out for the ski hills with Aidan and Brennan. They both have a two hour lesson and then spend some time skiing with Chris.
This leaves just me and Griffin home. Just the two of us.
I have to tell you, having one child, just one child, well, it's a little bit like being on vacation. It's easy street!
This past Sunday, G and I headed to Target. We did some shopping, some giggling and had a whole lot of fun. After making my mandatory 100$ donation to Target's bottom line, we were off to Wegmans for our grocery shopping.
But first, we split some Chinese food at Wegmans cafe. G is a big fan of Wegman's organic chicken dumplings. It was like a little date, our mother and son lunch. I was relaxed and he was joyful to finally have me all to himself. We lingered over lunch, just enjoying each other's company.
If I had to admit it, even the grocery shopping that followed was fun with just one child.
We timed our arrival at home just as the other two boys were returning from skiing with Chris. It was back to our normal, chaotic, oh so loud household.
I wouldn't trade our family of five for a minute, but I am already looking forward to my Sunday date with Griffin next weekend. It is a treat to have these stolen moments to love him up all on his own.
