Date's with the kids!!




 We were a little short on time this year, But we got the kids day dates with mom in before school started.  We pretty much had everything we needed for school.  I took the kids to go get a few extra things, and then out to lunch.  The girls both chose some new earrings, nail polish and there favorite snack.  Preston chose a few things he needed for his classes, and some of his favorite snacks.  I love this tradition, but almost didn't get it done this year.  We had dates monday, tuesday, and wednesday, the day before school started.  I feel like I really get to see the kids personalities come out when they aren't with the other siblings, and they have my undivided attention.  I love spending time with them individually and just listen to them talk and everything they have to tell.  Some are definitely more verbal then others.  I love them all so much, and am so grateful they are mine, and I get to have them in my life.  They make me want to be a better person/mom for them.  I really am lucky to be a stay at home mom to such wonderful kids.  Glad I get eternity with this crazy bunch of mine.
