Mommy-Blake Date

"In family relationships love is really spelled t-i-m-e, time. Taking time for each other is the key for harmony at home."--Dieter F. Uchtdorf


We have recently recommitted to creating one-and-one time with each of our boys.  When things begin to get tense or children start to bicker or fuss it is especially important for us to take this time for each other.  During our lastest one-on-one time Blake chose to go to the farm while his dad took the other two boys to the dinosaur museum.  We have passes to these activities so we go often but it was so fun to enjoy it while focusing on one child.

"Don't come with me mom.
I'm brave enough to go through the cave myself."
Blake loved choosing which way to go, what to look at first and how long to stay in each area of the farm.  I can't wait for future one-on-one times with my boys.  On Blake's list to do:  draw sharks, play in the water, go to the "dinosaur" park (the local park he and his brother have named), watercolor, make cookies
