Date Days

Last week before illness overtook our house I took the girls out on their very own date days.  I love spending one on one time with each of my girls and I normally look forward to their date days more than they do.  Ava's day was up first.  Flat daddy came along with us to enjoy the day with his girls. Pedicure, lunch and shopping was on her list of things to do. 

Little dose of purple zebra toes never hurt anyone!  Most days I have to remind myself that Ava is only 7- and a very young 7 at that.  When I look at her sometimes I see a young woman.  She has always been mature beyond her years and with her daddy being away I have really started to see her grow up even more right before my eyes.  Any task that I need her to fulfill that normally Joe would help me on, she steps in and does her best.  She's my teammate, I love her and I am thankful that she has been by my side during this deployment. 

 

Next stop was lunch and flat daddy was hungry and staring her food down the entire time. 

 

Few days later it was Miss Emma's turn. 

 If anyone knows Emma they know that she is always hungry so lunch was one of the first things she wanted to do. 

The library was next on her list to visit.  Once she picked out some books she showed daddy her selections.  He approved of her choices and told her to take him to that nice little foot place again.  He enjoyed the relaxing environment when he was there with Ava a few days prior.  She obeyed her daddy and the next stop was pedicure time.

The kid chair was even too big for her.  She loved the warm water, the food rub and the leg scrub.  100% girl in the fact she loves to be pampered.  Emma's design of choice: Hello Kitty. 

We had to rush to finish her toes because Ava's school called and she needed to be picked up.  After these date days we have been home bound.  This illness is making its rounds.  Day # 7 right now and its still hanging on!  Thankfully I have two girls who love to play nurse.  I love you girls and I look forward to our next date. 






Enjoy your family~
