Last year we had this brilliant idea that we would do an overnight date for our anniversary each year. Well, since this year will welcome with it a new little bundle of joy, we headed for an overnight date in May instead. We had hoped to make a dash out of the city and into the mountains but it didn't pan out. Instead we found ourselves at a nice hotel downtown.
We strolled around downtown and even ate out. Eating out is a serious rarity around here. We lucked out with a great menu, great food and lovely company.
We also used the time to talk about family goals that we want to see happen and to start piecing together a vision about what we need to do with our time here in Montreal as we work to be improve our parenting and build a strong family. The result was some new insights, more motivation, goals for our family and actions to get us towards those goals. Loving the journey we're on with this family!
It was a great little reset together. Though, coming home to those cheerful kiddos was a great reminder of what this is all for - the eternal family :).
