My Date with Sid!

Wow! I had a date with my husband! It was perfect, we just had the most wonderful time! We just spent time hanging out together. It was so nice to just walk around and run some simple errands by ourselves. First, we went to Family Bookstore. Sid bought a book called The Ragamuffin Gospel by Brennan Manning, and I picked up a bible study for women put out by Focus on the Family called Balanced Living. I can not wait to get started on that!

Then we went to Kohl's because I needed some new tennis shoes. After that we decided to get supper at Paneras; a wonderful quite meal. Then, we went to Barnes and Noble. I did not even go in the children's section! I picked up Dr. James Dobson's book Preparing for adolescence. I feel like the time has come to read that book again so we can help Wes through this transition time in his life.

After a quick stop in Sam's, we headed back to Greer and grabbed a coffee at Starbucks. I love my children and love spending every day with them, but the chance to just be with Sid is priceless. I feel so much closer to him when we have chances to actually finish sentences uninterrupted. Just a simple chance to reconnect.

Well that was my date night, with some of my favorite things....books, a good cup of coffee, and my main man!
