(My first effort with blackberry photos. Not bad. Not good, but I'm learning!)
With active four kids it is often hard to find much one-on-one time, so I take what I can get! During a recent tournament, Claire and Caden headed back to Oakville with Louis to attend their Saturday morning commitments and it was just Chloe and me as Cole was busy with his team.
We had a wonderfully relaxed, easy paced, food filled day.
Chloe has the gift of the gab - gift might be an overstatement - and she kept me entertained with stories and ideas and plans. She is currently writing a novel and brought her black composition book and pencil everywhere. Except the pool, in which she spent hours!
We enjoyed some great meals and plenty of treats. Moe definitely has a sweet tooth and often I find myself telling her "no" to her many requests. This was a "yes" day so there were plenty of cookies, ice cream and a frappaccino! I avoided most temptations and let her indulge, but did manage a slice of carrot cake, but gathered some restraint and had a green tea rather than the fancy drink.
It was so nice to enjoy her company, away from her siblings. I'm glad we were able to find a small bit of Mama and Moe time! It is so hard to manage, but so worth all of the effort.
