A date with mommy at Starbucks

Last weekend we were all sitting at the table for lunch when Aidan said to me, "mommy, may I take you on a date?" Chris and I talked about it and decided that it would be a good day to do that since he had been asking about it for the past couple of weeks. So I asked him where he wanted to take me on a date, his response, "um, how about the play area at the mall?" Chris and I laughed heartily at this response! And that my friends is why daddies have a responsibility to teach their sons how to win a woman's heart! Trust me, she doesn't REALLY want to go to the gun show ;)

When we were on our first date I told Aidan what daddy and I do on our dates, how we talk to each other and tell each other how much we love each other and such. He interrupted me with a sweet little comment about how much he loves me. He's a quick learner! In fact the other day I put on a new shirt and he said to me after admiring my new shirt, "you smell pretty mommy." How sweet :)

One last thing about our date. While we were sitting there drinking our coffee/hot chocolate a young lady walked up to order and he asked me, "mommy she's a princess?" "yes honey, she is" :) Such a tender little heart, and one day he is going to make a young lady a very fine husband, and some daughters a fine daddy. Until then, I will soak up all his tenderness and hold all those precious gifts in my heart.
