Well, not really! The kids are out for winter break so Katie and Cole headed over to Granny Susie's for a week long visit. We don't have Trevor and Colton until the weekend. To say the least our house is quiet! This does not happen often and we are really enjoying it. When you bring kids into a marriage, the whole dynamics are different. Life revolves around the kids. Even your dates revolve around children...(will they go with you? do you need a sitter?, etc.) There was never just a Brian and Buffie, we both came with extras! So this week Brian and I are learning a lot about well, Brian and I. There are no kids to be shuffled here or there, no meals to be cooked, grocery shopping, no homework, etc.
As much as we love our children, it has been nice to have some "alone" time. Time to just lavish on each other. We didn't plan a trip to the Caymans, just some one on one time at Brookfield Drive. It's been a great time to slow down, reconnect and savor the moment. When Friday rolls around, it's back to the Brady Bunch!
