Hope for the Home Linky Party Parent Child Dates
Hope for the Home Linky Party Parent Child Dates
This past Friday when I picked Little A up from school, I took him on a "date" to get ice cream...just the two of us!
I was frustrated because I feel like I dont get enough quality time with my oldest baby anymore...it is never just me and him. I get Little E to myself alot because he is still at home and then Little A joins us after school. Anytime the kids are split up, it is usually Little E with me and Little A with Big A, thats just how it works out most of the time.
As a result, we have decided that every Friday morning Big A will take Little E to get donuts, just the two of them and every Friday after school, I will take Little A to get ice cream...or really whatever they want, but so far it has been donuts and ice cream!
It is such a blessing to be able to spend some quality time with each one of my babies, doing things they enjoy, bonding and talking without the distraction of the other one. It is precious time together and I highly suggest you try it with your children as well!
Fridays work best for us because it is Big As day off, but you find whatever time works for you and find out what your child would like to do. Once a week works for us at this point, but that may not work for you...maybe start with once a month. Children grow up way too fast and I know I will always cherish these memories together and will never regret the time spent with each of them!
Do you have any ideas for parent/child dates? What has worked for you?
