Quality Time

Our dear Wii Woman babysat yesterday for us while LK and I went into town on our own yesterday, sans kiddos! What a treat. We even managed to spend a chunk of our time talking about non-school stuff. Bliss!

Our relationships has undergone a dramatic change this year with LK teaching full-time. The balance of work at home has shifted, and continued to shift as our weeks pass. Our relationship has had mentor-mentee added to the layers. Although, we have already had that role in music with LK as the mentor. Now its my turn to mentor.

So, yesterday was a real treat. We did errands in half the time they usually take when we have the little people in tow. We lingered at the library, both choosing books at the same time, rather than taking turns. We ate lunch at a sit-down restaurant, rather than fast food or a picnic. On the drive home we talked about books and the world outside our own little four walls.

When we arrived home, Fi had learned to play on the Wii. Guess what just got put on her gift wish list for her seventh birthday?
