This past weekend Aser and I got away, just the two of us, for three nights! Yep-- that is one of our longest times away ever. So much has happened this year that it was great to have time to talk and eat and just hang out with no worries about time. We also walked and walked sometimes up until midnight just soaking in the time. I just love my time with us and remembering, living and dreaming about the future... the time flew,and had the most wonderful fireworks display I have ever seen following this picnic on the grass. All of the kids did great and LOVED being with grandma for that long. She is amazing and had special things planned each day. However, it has been hard on Malachi having us back as he is very attached to my mom after being with her for a whole month. He says "mamama" for grandma and will call her and look for her throughout the day. It does break my heart, but at the same time in is wonderful he is so loved by her and so attached and I know it time he will fall into the comfort of this whole family.

how great!!
good for you for making time to spend some time together alone.
Happy anniversary! You both look so fabulous and I'm sure the time away was incredible!
I'm sure Malachi will continue figuring out the roles in your family as time goes on and come to understand who mommy is and who grandma is with more certainty! Hang in there.. it sounds like you guys are doing so well!
Happy Anniversary!
We just had our 13yr anniversary on August 12. You are such a beautiful couple!
Have a wonderful rest of the week!
The Hagner Family
