Couple time (sort of)

Everyone needs a little couple time but couples with kids rarely get it and couples with special needs kids hardly ever get it! So last Monday it snowed and Wes took off work. We still had to drop Gage off at school, which is a 40 min drive. So we took Gage to school and decided to go to the grocery store. Now the grocery store has been remodeled. They have a child care area that you can drop your kids off while you shop, (are they geniuses or what!?) and a little coffee shop area with couches chairs and a fireplace. Makinna loves the child care area. She always begs me to go to the grocery store so she can go play at "The Tree House" Wes and I drop Makinna off at The Tree House and then decide to get a cup of coffee before we pick up our things. We get a cup of coffee and snuggle up on the couch in front of the fireplace at the cafe. It was nice to just sit there. And then I just started to laugh. It just struck me so funny (and sad) that to get a moment to ourselves we had to go to the cafe at the grocery store!!! We only sat for a few minutes and looked at the fire and admired the view out the window of the grocery carts all in a line waiting for customers to pick them up. I guess you have to find romance where ever you can get it.
