a day for ice cream

 
 
 
 
last week we went to BDI to celebrate the end of summer. What fun to walk the streets with ice cream and go for a picnic at a nearby school. It was a perfect "Family Day" We have been sharing with our girls that Family Days are the best days, because we do things together and enjoy each other. We try to do this once a week, starting with making French Toast in the morning and often some craft while Taliah sleeps and then an outing ( often very basic like the park , to the river, or maybe the city)but the focus is being together. It is fun to see Eiley already ask "Is it Family Day?....Yaayyyy!" We want our family to be the center of their world providing security and fun a soft place to fall and come home to when they do venture into the world. What a blessing family is.

family day, what a great idea. :) we should have more of those too. especially after the baby comes, it'll be important for me to have more intentional time with my little girl.
you guys are such awesome parents, i really admire you both. :)
